水溶性高分子的仿生设计合成和亚组分自组装

Polymer-metal hybrid nanomaterials have been proven to be promising in emerging fields of green chemistry, biological technology and new energy source. The exploring of highly-ordered complex structures and also sophisticated functions are the main trend to the future development. This project will learn from the nature at molecular level, mimicking the dynamic features of supramolecular architectures in metalloproteins. To this end, a range of well-defined NH2-based reversibly reactive water-soluble copolymers, which consist of the comonomer units similar to the peptide amino acid structures and have different compositions and sequences of the comonomer units, will be synthesized via visible-light-mediated iterative RAFT polymerization in aqueous media at ambient temperature; a variety of aldehyde-functionalized compounds including vitamin B6 will be selected. These materials will utilized as water-soluble subcomponents. The polymer-metal hybrid nanomaterials that have unique properties of selective coordination and dynamic exchange will be exploited via subcompoment self-assembly in aqueous media at ambient temperature, using the abundent first-row transition metal ions as the templates, such as iron, cobalt, nickel, copper and/or zinc ions that are commonly exist in the natural metalloproteins. The correlation of supramolecular architectures with subcomponent structures and the compositions of aqueous media will be studied. The kinetic effects including the assembly-triggered diffusion control and the coordination-induced catalysis will be explored.The unique properties of selective coordination and dynamic exchange in the nanoscale-confined water-soluble polymers will be developed. Accordingly, this project will shed new light on the effect of the local nano-confinement of water-soluble polymer chains on the unique properties of selective coordination and dynamic exchange, and thus the dynamic evolution of supramolecular architectures. In short, this project will guide us a new avenue towards sophisticated biomimetic functional polymer-metal hybrid nanomaterials, and inevitably extend the applications and new insight into the nature of visible- light-mediated ambient aqueous iterative RAFT polymerization that was most recently developed by our group.
