Abstract
AbstractAzide end‐functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS‐N3) was incorporated into the periphery of well‐defined alkyne‐polystyrene50‐poly(divinyl benzene) (alkyne‐PS50‐polyDVB) and alkyne‐poly(tert‐butyl acrylate)43‐poly(divinyl benzene) (alkyne‐PtBA43‐polyDVB) multiarm star polymers via highly efficient azide‐alkyne click reaction, resulting in POSS‐PS50‐polyDVB and POSS‐PtBA43‐polyDVB multiarm star block copolymers respectively, in the solution of tetrahydrofuran/N,N‐dimethyl formamide, CuBr/N,N,N′,N″,N″‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) at room temperature for 24 h. Linear precursors and star polymers obtained in this study were characterized 1H NMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and triple detection GPC (TD‐GPC). Absolute molecular weight, hydrodynamic radius, and intrinsic viscosity ([η]) values for all star polymers were determined by TD‐GPC. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
