Oxidative oligomerization of cyclodextrin-complexed bifunctional phenols catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase in water

The HRP‐catalyzed oligomerization of hydrophobic bifunctional phenols in water was realized by the use of 2,6‐di‐O‐methylated β‐cyclodextrin. The molecular weights of the resulting oligomers were in the same region as they were reached by conventional HRP‐catalyzed oligomerizations in water/dioxane‐...

Summary:The HRP‐catalyzed oligomerization of hydrophobic bifunctional phenols in water was realized by the use of 2,6‐di‐O‐methylated β‐cyclodextrin. The molecular weights of the resulting oligomers were in the same region as they were reached by conventional HRP‐catalyzed oligomerizations in water/dioxane‐mixtures. The polymerizable moieties, maleimide and methacrylamide, were not affected during the oligomerization process, as proofed by NMR, MALDI‐TOF and FT‐IR measurements. It was therefore possible to get soluble functionalized oligomers, which were crosslinked via radical copolymerization with suitable components (styrene, MMA) or heating.
