✦ Synopsis


Poly(D,L-lactide) -poly(1-caprolactone) -poly(ethylene glycol) -poly(1-caprolactone) -poly (D,L-lactide) block copolymer (PLA-PCL-PEG-PCL-PLA) was prepared by copolymerization of 1-caprolactone (1-CL) and D,L-lactide (D,L-LA) initiated by potassium poly(ethylene glycol)ate in THF at 25ЊC. The copolymers with different composition were synthesized by adjusting the mole ratio of reaction mixture. The resulted copolymers were characterized by 1 H-NMR, 13 C-NMR, IR, DSC, and GPC. Efforts to prepare copolymers with the corresponding structure of PCL-PLA-PEG-PLA-PCL and D,L-lactide/ 1-caprolactone random copolymers were not successful.
