A polymeric membrane permeabilizer displaying densely packed arrays of crown ether lateral substituents
Résumé
We report the design, synthesis and evaluation of a novel macromolecular membrane permeabilizer displaying geminally substituted crown-ethers (18-crown-6) on every third carbon alongside the backbone. The polymer has a rather high affinity with potassium as well as permeabilization properties towards K+, Na+ and Ca2+, including single-channel behavior.
