Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polymer synthesis and biomedical analysis, in particular to a triggered self-degradable polycoumarin monomer molecule and a synthesis method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the field of biochemical analysis, fluorescence signal amplification technology is crucial for the detection of low-level analytes. Traditional signal amplification strategies, such as nucleic acid tool enzyme-assisted technology and nanomaterial technology, rely on biological macromolecules and have problems such as low economy, poor stability, and insufficient controllability. Triggered self-degradable polymers (SIPs) have become ideal carriers for signal amplification due to their "1:n" degradation mode. A single trigger can release n molecular signals without the need for exogenous tools. However, existing SIPs (SIFPs) with fluorescent molecules as the main chain skeleton face challenges such as harsh monomer design, short fluorescence wavelength (<510nm), and insufficient penetration depth, which limit their application in deep systems such as in vivo imaging. Therefore, it is necessary to design a triggered self-degradable polycoumarin monomer molecule and its synthesis method. Summary of the Invention

[0069] This study, based on coumarin derivative monomers 1d and 7i, allows the construction of polycarbonate- or polyurethane-type polycoumarin polymers through polycondensation. Using coumarin derivative 1d as the primary polymerization monomer, the present invention investigates the polymerization process and the triggered self-degradation properties of the resulting polycoumarin.

[0070] The synthesis process of polycarbonate-type polycoumarin polymer is as follows Figure 14 The specific synthesis process is as follows: A 10 mL Schlenk reaction tube was connected to a double-row tube and, under vacuum, flame-dried three times with a flame gun and then filled with argon. Under argon protection, 60 mg (0.17 mmol, 1 equiv) of monomer 1d and an appropriate amount of end-capping molecule c1 (2.02 mg, 0.008 mmol, 0.05 equiv) were added. Subsequently, 0.5 mL of ultra-dry toluene was added. The reaction system was degassed by freeze-drying three times and then filled with argon. Under argon protection, the reaction system was cooled to 0°C. Subsequently, 23 mg (0.19 mmol, 1.1 equiv) of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) was added. After reacting for 30 minutes, the temperature was raised to room temperature and the reaction was continued for 1 hour. The reaction solution was extracted three times with dichloromethane and washed once with saturated ammonium chloride. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain the crude product (TBS-capped C-SIFP).

[0071]

[0072] By comparing the H NMR spectra of the coumarin derivative monomer 1d, the polymer TBS-capped C-SIFP and the polymer degradation product ( 1 H NMR) data can preliminarily verify the successful synthesis of the polymer and the occurrence of the self-degradation process. 1 As can be seen from the H NMR comparison diagram, after polymerization reaction occurs, the methylene characteristic peak in the hydroxymethyl in the monomer molecule moves to the low field region in the polymer, and is changed from a bimodal to a unimodal, indicating that the monomer molecule undergoes polymerization reaction to form a macromolecular main chain. Meanwhile, characteristic peaks of tert-butyl and methyl appear in the structure of the polymer, indicating that the end-capping molecule is successfully connected to the macromolecular main chain. By the integral ratio of tert-butyl and methylene hydrogen in the main chain, it can be preliminarily estimated that the macromolecular polymerization degree is about 8. In the present invention, the reaction solvent and the consumption of the alkali for the polymerization reaction of polycarbonate type polycoumarin macromolecule are also preliminarily optimized, but it is currently found that the efficiency of the polymerization reaction is relatively low, and the macromolecular product obtained is very few. In subsequent research work, by replacing a more suitable reaction solvent, increasing reactant concentration, increasing the optimization of reaction conditions such as temperature of reaction, or replacing the activated group of the coumarin molecule to make it easier to leave in the polymerization reaction, it is expected to obtain a more ideal macromolecular structure of polymerization degree.

[0073] From the fluorescence change, the polymer has almost no fluorescence in the solution, which is different from the stimulant F - After the action of fluorescein, the fluorescence was rapidly and significantly enhanced. In addition, the molecular weight distribution changes of the polymer before and after degradation were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Figure 15 It can be clearly seen from the illustration that - After the action, the peak of the polymer disappeared, which preliminarily verified the feasibility of generating fluorescent signals by polymer degradation.

[0074] In summary, the present invention combines a classic small molecule fluorophore with a novel trigger-type self-degradable polymer, designs and synthesizes two types of coumarin derivative monomers by means of polymer synthesis, and successfully prepares a polycarbonate-type polycoumarin structure, which has a great influence on the bioactivity of the polycoumarin polymer in response to the stimulant F. - The triggered self-degradation process under the action of the chemical reaction was investigated, and the goal of a new triggered self-degradable polymer structure with the classic fluorescent small molecule coumarin as the main chain skeleton was preliminarily achieved. This provides guidance and assistance for improving the detection sensitivity of small molecule fluorescent probes to the analysis objects through chemical methods and constructing new methods for molecular amplification analysis.
