What is Synthesis of AB Diblock Copolymers by Atom-Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) and Living Polymerization of α-Amino Acid-N-Carboxyanhydrides about?

## Abstract **Summary:** The synthesis of poly(methyl acrylate)‐__block__‐poly(__γ__‐benzyl‐L‐glutamate) (PMA‐__b__‐PBLG) diblock copolymers, using atom‐transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl acrylate and living polymerization of __γ__‐benzyl‐L‐glutamate‐__N__‐carboxyanhydride (Glu‐NCA) is described. Amido‐amidate nickelacycle end groups were incorporated onto amino‐terminated poly(methyl acrylates), and the resulting complexes were successfully used as macroinitiators for the growth of polypeptide segments. This method allows the controlled preparation of polypeptide‐__block__‐poly(methyl acrylate) diblock architectures with control over polypeptide chain length and without the formation of homopolypeptide contaminants. magnified image
