RESUMO
CM-Str (4-(Chloromethyl)styrene) was used as a useful starting material for the construction of a series of functional monomers. Substitution of the chlorine to the corresponding azide was performed, and the reduction of the azide proceeded smoothly to afford an aminostyrene, which was used as a common precursor for the preparation of functional monomers. Condensation of the amine with a fluorophore, biotin and carbohydrate was accomplished. Among the monomers, a carbohydrate monomer was polymerized with or without acrylamide as a model polymerization to yield the corresponding water-soluble glycopolymers, and biological evaluations of the glycopolymers for a lectin, and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), were carried out on the basis of the fluorescence change of tryptophan in the WGA.
