Pentafluorophenyl methacrylate

In contrast to the above well-known strategies to modify CNTs for DNA delivery, Geyik et al. recently developed a new approach using the covalent attachment of linearized plasmid DNA to MWNTs. Cifuentes-Rius et al. demonstrated that two different monomers, pentafluorophenyl methacrylate (PFM) and allylamine (AA), could be polymerized on the CNT surface in a home-built plasma reactor, allowing the formation of CNT-mediated gene delivery vectors. ...

Polymers containing activated ester functional groups have also been frequently employed for post-polymerization modifications [47-49]. Poly(pentafluorophenyl methacrylate) (PPFPMA) is a particularly attractive activated ester polymer because it has a high reactivity towards amines, hydrolytic stability, and good solubility in a variety of common organic solvents [50, 51]. Moreover, the...
