In 2022,Wang, Zhigang; Lan, Yingjia; Liu, Peng; Li, Xiaohong; Zhao, Youliang published an article in Polymer Chemistry. The title of the article was ãRational design of a multi-in-one heterofunctional agent for versatile topological transformation of multisite multisegmented polystyrenesã?Electric Literature of C3H7BrO The author mentioned the following in the article:
Architecture-transformable polymers can expand the family of stimuli-responsive polymers and be utilized to reveal the topol. effect. Despite the tremendous progress, it remains a great challenge to achieve single polymer based on-demand topol. transformations with reduced, similar and enhanced molar masses. To address this challenge, an initiating, coupling and pH/thermo-labile agent is designed to synthesize linker-reactive multisite multisegmented polymers (LMMPs) via tandem ATRP and ATRC, followed by intermol. anthracene dimerization to generate single-chain folding polystyrenes. Meanwhile, bromine and hydroxyl groups are incorporated into each linker to generate graft copolymers comprising poly(tert-Bu acrylate) and poly(ε-caprolactone) side chains. The self-immolative tertiary amine ester linker allows thermo-triggered topol. transformation from multisegmented, intrachain folding and graft polymers to one-segment polymers. The robust one-shot strategy can afford a promising platform to construct heterofunctional multisegmented polymers with tailor-made structures and functions. After reading the article, we found that the author used 3-Bromopropan-1-ol(cas: 627-18-9Electric Literature of C3H7BrO)
3-Bromopropan-1-ol(cas: 627-18-9) is used in the synthesis of fluorescent halide-sensitive quinolinium dyes, chiral, quaternary prolines through cyclization of quaternary amino acids and molten salt-polymers. It is utilized for the study of micellar media and in microemulsions based on cationic or a nonionic surfactant by reacting with phenols.Electric Literature of C3H7BrO
