Fructose-sensitive thermal transition behaviour of boronic ester-bearing telechelic poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline)†
Abstract
Boronic ester-bearing telechelic poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (B-PiPrOx-B) exhibited a hydrophilic–hydrophobic phase transition near human-body temperature in aqueous media. The thermal transition temperature of B-PiPrOx-B changed notably upon addition of fructose.
