Synthesis of novel dendrimer-like star block copolymers with definite numbers of arms by combination of ROP and ATRP.
Well-defined biodegradable dendrimer-like star block copolymers with up to 24 arms were successfully synthesized by combination of living ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) on the basis of dendritic benzyl alcohols.
