title = "Sequence-controlled multi-block glycopolymers via Cu(0) mediated living radical polymerization",
abstract = "Synthetic glycopolymers with pendant saccharides bind to mammalian carbohydrate-recognition proteins with high affinity due to their multivalency and primary structure. However, glycoproteins function in nature via an exquisitely tuned {"}glycocode{"} and mimicking this code remains an interesting challenge in polymer chemistry. In order to address this we have synthesized glycomonomers via a [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between sugar-alkyne and azido-acrylates and these monomers were used to synthesize a series of sequence controlled glycopolymers (SCGP) using single electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET-LRP).",
