We have employed functionalized diaryl sulfoximines and a p -phenylene bisborane as building blocks for unprecedented BN- and BO-doped alternating inorganic-organic hybrid copolymers. While the former were accessed by a facile silicon/boron exchange protocol, the synthesis of polymers with main-chain B-O linkages was achieved by salt elimination.}, language = {en} } @article{PoepplerLuebtowSchlauersbachetal.2019, author = {P{\"o}ppler, Ann-Christin and L{\"u}btow, Michael M. and Schlauersbach, Jonas and Wiest, Johannes and Meinel, Lorenz and Luxenhofer, Robert}, title = {Loading dependent Structural Model of Polymeric Micelles Encapsulating Curcumin by Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy}, series = {Angewandte Chemie International Edition}, volume = {58}, journal = {Angewandte Chemie International Edition}, number = {51}, doi = {10.1002/anie.201908914}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-206705}, pages = {18540-18546}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Detailed insight into the internal structure of drug-loaded polymeric micelles is scarce, but important for developing optimized delivery systems. We observed that an increase in the curcumin loading of triblock copolymers based on poly(2-oxazolines) and poly(2-oxazines) results in poorer dissolution properties. Using solid-state NMR spectroscopy and complementary tools we propose a loading-dependent structural model on the molecular level that provides an explanation for these pronounced differences. Changes in the chemical shifts and cross-peaks in 2D NMR experiments give evidence for the involvement of the hydrophobic polymer block in the curcumin coordination at low loadings, while at higher loadings an increase in the interaction with the hydrophilic polymer blocks is observed. The involvement of the hydrophilic compartment may be critical for ultrahigh-loaded polymer micelles and can help to rationalize specific polymer modifications to improve the performance of similar drug delivery systems.}, language = {en} }
