Regioselective Copolymerization of Acryl Sucrose Monomers

Abstract

1',2,3,3',4,4',6-Hepta-O-benzyl-sucrose has been prepared and selectively 6'-O-esterified with small alpha,beta-unsaturated acid derivatives. New chiral copolymers containing sucrose have been synthesized by radical polymerization, and some of their physical properties have been determined.
