摘要
Herein the synthesis of star polymers from common dendrimers and commercially available compounds via organocatalyzed ring opening polymerization is described. Through the use of selective hydrogen bonding catalysis both homo and block star polymers were generated with exceptional fidelity having specified M-n and narrow polydispersity. This report demonstrates the broad potential of these methods for the creation of uniform materials exhibiting ideal properties for designer delivery systems.
