Abstract

Novel amphiphlic four-arm star-shaped poly (2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) s with calix [4] arene core were synthesized using the “grafting from” approach. The chlorosulfonated calix [4] arene derivative was synthesized and successfully applied as a multifunctional initiator for the cationic ring-opening polymerization of 2-alkyl-2-oxazolines. Obtained star-shaped poly (2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) s were characterized by means of NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and gel-permeation chromatography. It was shown that star-shaped poly (2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) perform thermosensitivity in aqueous solutions.
