A Supramolecular Triarm Star Polymer from a Homotritopic Tris(Crown Ether) Host and a Complementary Monotopic Paraquat-Terminated Polystyrene Guest by a Supramolecular Coupling Method

The first supramolecular star polymer based on pseudorotaxane host−guest complexation was prepared from statistical complexation of a homotritopic tris(crown ether) host and monotopic paraquat-terminated polystyrene guest in solution. The formation of this supramolecular star polymer was confirmed b...

Description
Summary:The first supramolecular star polymer based on pseudorotaxane host−guest complexation was prepared from statistical complexation of a homotritopic tris(crown ether) host and monotopic paraquat-terminated polystyrene guest in solution. The formation of this supramolecular star polymer was confirmed by proton NMR characterization and viscosity studies.
