Properties
Description
PtBA-conjugated chondroitin sulfate (PtBA-CS) grafts poly(tert-butyl acrylate) through ATRP, introducing hydrophobic protective groups for controlled depolymerization.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→146 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Chondroitin sulfate-polytert-butyl acrylate can be used for its potential to study tert-butyl ester hydrolysis kinetics in controlled polymer degradation.
