Abstract
The bulk polymerization of 2‐(dec‐9‐enyl)‐2‐oxazoline (DecEnOx), a fatty acid‐based monomer for the cationic ring‐opening polymerization, is reported. Furthermore, under optimal conditions, namely microwave heating at 100 °C, the bulk copolymerization with 2‐ethyl‐2‐oxazoline yielded well‐defined copolymers. Due to its pendant alkene groups DecEnOx‐based polymers possess the potential to be modified in efficient thiol‐ene reactions. The functionalization with thiols, e.g., dodecanethiol and 2,3,4,6‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐1‐thio‐β‐D‐glycopyranose in “green” solvents is demonstrated.
