What is Modular Synthesis of Amphiphilic Chitosan Derivatives Based on Copper-free Click Reaction for Drug Delivery about?

Amphiphilic chitosan derivatives have attracted wide attention as drug carriers due to their physicochemical properties. However, obtaining a desired amphiphilic chitosan derivative by tuning the various functional groups was complex and time-consuming. Therefore, a facile and common synthesis strategy would be promising. In this study, a modular strategy based on strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) click reaction was designed and applied in synthesizing deoxycholic acid- or octanoic acid-modified N-azido propionyl-N,O-sulfate chitosan through tuning the hydrophobic groups. Additionally, chitosan derivatives with the same substitute groups were prepared via amide coupling as controls. We demonstrated that these derivates via the two strategies showed no obvious difference in physicochemical properties, drug loading ability and biosafety, indicating the feasibility of modular strategy. Notably, the modular strategy exhibited advantages including high reactivity, flexibility and reproducibility. We believe that this modular strategy could provide varied chitosan derivatives in an easy and high-efficiency way for improving multifunctional drug carriers.
