Lipase‐Catalyzed Synthesis of Furan‐Based Oligoesters and their Self‐Assembly‐Assisted Polymerization

We investigate the synthesis of bio-based hydrophilic and hydrophobic oligoesters, which in turn are derived from easily accessible monomers from natural resources. In addition to the selection of renewable monomers, Novozyme 435, an immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica was used for the oligomerization of monomers. The reaction conditions for oligomerization using Novozyme 435 were established to obtain a moderate-to-good yield. The average number of repeating units and the molecular weight distribution of hydrophilic and hydrophobic oligoester were identified by using NMR spectroscopy, gel-permeation chromatography, and MS. The oligoester derived from a hydrophilic monomer self-assembled to form a viscous solution, which upon further heating resulted in the formation of a polymer by the intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction. The viscosity of the solution and the assembly of oligoester to form a fibrous structure were investigated by using rheological studies, XRD, and SEM. The molecular weight of the cross-linked polymer was identified by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-MS. The thermal properties of the bio-based polymers were investigated by using thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. For the first time, the self-assembly-assisted polymerization of an oligoester is reported using the intermolecular Diels-Alder reaction, which opens a new avenue in the field of polymer science.

“…A liphatic polyesters have been explored for several decades for use in biomedical applications owing to their biodegradability and biocompatibility. [1][2][3][4][5][6] It is important for materials in drug delivery to be able to achieve their purpose for a certain amount of time before being cleared from the body either by renal clearance or through degradation. There are several criteria that are important to consider when looking at biodegradable materials.…”

The use of aliphatic polyesters in drug delivery applications has been a field of significant interest spanning decades. Drug delivery strategies have made abundant use of polyesters in their structures owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability. The properties afforded from these materials provide many avenues for the tunability of drug delivery systems to suit individual needs of diverse applications. Polyesters can be formed in several different ways, but the most prevalent is the ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters. When used to form amphiphilic block copolymers, these materials can be utilized to form various drug carriers such as nanoparticles, micelles, and polymersomes. These drug delivery systems can be tailored through the addition of targeting moieties and the addition of stimuli-responsive groups into the polymer chains. There are also different types of polyesters that can be used to modify the degradation rates or mechanical properties. Here, we discuss the reasons that polyesters have become so popular, the current research focuses, and what the future holds for these materials in drug delivery applications.

“…In general, most of the studies in this topic are involved in the valorization of agricultural and/or municipal wastes (mostly lignocellulosic-and starch-based substrates) as starting materials for the creation of new products, especially as fillers or additives in the development of both polymeric and composite materials [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. This is, for instance, the case of Mater-Bi, a starch-derived commercially-available bioplastic (produced by Novamont S.p.A., Italy) [17][18][19][20].…”

Abstract:The valorization of aquatic-derived biowastes as possible feedstock for the production of value-added chemicals and materials is proposed here as a sustainable alternative compared to the exploitation of the more conventional (fossil) resources. In this context, the comprehension of the opportunity related to the valorization of the shellfish industry biowaste for the production of useful materials, especially focusing on chitin and its derived byproducts, is investigated. The large amount of waste produced each year by the shellfish processing industry seems to be an appealing opportunity for the European market to produce valuable products from underutilized waste. In order to highlight this important market-opportunity, the actual European situation concerning the shellfish volume of production is presented. The industrial processes necessary for the recovery of chitin, chitosan, and their derivatives are largely described, together with a wide description of their peculiar (and interesting) physicochemical properties. Even if nowadays the scientific literature suggests that this class of biopolymers is very appealing, further research is still necessary for overcoming some criticisms still present in the extraction and valorization of such substrates. However, the principles of both circular economy and green chemistry encourage the reduction of such biowastes and their exploitation as an alternative resource for a global sustainable future.
