Journal ArticleDOI

From poly(alkyl cyanoacrylate) to squalene as core material for the design of nanomedicines.

TL;DR: The development of a novel type of NP with higher drug loadings and lower burst release was tackled by the discovery of squalene-based nanomedicines where the drug is covalently linked to the lipid derivative and the resulting conjugate is self-assembled into NPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclopentyl methyl ether as a green solvent for reversible-addition fragmentation chain transfer and nitroxide-mediated polymerizations

TL;DR: In this paper, cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) was successfully used as an environmentally friendly alternative to the regularly employed organic solvents (e.g., tetrahydrofuran (THF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), dichloromethane (DCM) and dimethylformamide (DMF)) for the reversible-addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and nitroxide-mediated polymerization (NMP) of vinyl chloride (VC) and styrene (S).
Journal ArticleDOI

A facile route to heterotelechelic polymer prodrug nanoparticles for imaging, drug delivery and combination therapy.

TL;DR: A facile and general synthetic methodology has been developed to prepare high drug loading heterotelechelic polymer prodrug nanoparticles that are nanoparticles obtained by formulation of linear polymers bearing two different molecules at both extremities.
Journal ArticleDOI

DFT-calculation-assisted prediction of the copolymerization between cyclic ketene acetals and traditional vinyl monomers

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactivity of cyclic ketene acetals and common vinyl monomers has been analyzed and it has been shown that common vinyl copolymers can be obtained with reactivity ratios close to 0.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the structure–control relationship of amide-functionalized SG1-based alkoxyamines for nitroxide-mediated polymerization and conjugation

TL;DR: In this paper, a wide range of amide-functionalized alkoxyamines (a functionality often obtained after conjugation from COOH- and N-succinimidyl-containing alkoxyamine) based on SG1 (N-tert-butyl-N-(1-diethyl phosphono-2,2-dimethylpropyl) nitroxide) have been synthesized and their dissociation rate constants have been determined to rationalize their reactivity.
