Abstract

As a feasible way for controlling the density of ligands in polyrotaxanes, azidated polyrotaxanes comprising PEG (MW = 3 000 and 20 000 g · mol^−1^) and mono‐, di‐, or triazidated α‐cyclodextrins are prepared in a water/DMSO solution in a one‐pot synthesis. The azidated polyrotaxanes are then allowed to conjugate with propargyl‐modified mannose as a ligand via click chemistry. As proven by FTIR spectroscopy and ^1^H NMR‐spectroscopy, mannose molecules are efficiently introduced into all of the azide moieties of the polyrotaxanes. The results verify the achievement of ligand‐density‐controlled polyrotaxanes. The functionalized polyrotaxanes can be utilized for a variety of biological applications. magnified image
