Abstract |
Amphiphilic random copolymers containing hydrophobic and hydrophilic side chains spontaneously self-assemble in water via hydrophobic interaction into a spherical unimer or multi-chain micelles. We design amphiphilic random copolymers containing a stereocenter in the hydrophobic chain to investigate how molecular chirality can affect the micellar packing in aqueous solution. We synthesize two mirror-imaged hydrophobic monomers and incorporate into the amphiphilic random copolymer via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) process. Their chiral effects on self-assembly will be discussed based on the dynamic light scattering (DLS), circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD), and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analyses. |
