“…In particular, fluorescent conjugated glycopolymers that possess both fluorescent scaffolding and reporting carbohydrate ligands are attractively used in carbohydrate-protein interaction studies and biosensor applications because of their intrinsic optical properties, high sensitivities to minor stimuli, and good biocompatibilities [9][10][11][12][13]. A few conjugated polymers, such as polythiophene [10,11], polyfluorene [12], poly(p-phenylene-ethynylene) [13][14][15][16][17], poly(phenylene-vinylene) [18], and poly(p-phenylene) [19], have been chosen to design this type of multivalent glycoconjugates. One approach to such a system is represented by the polymerization or copolymerization of well-defined carbohydrate-carrying monomers through classical C-C coupling reactions [10,13,[15][16][17][18].…”
