多糖超分子の構築 Construction of Supramolecules Based on Polysaccharides |
金子 芳郎・門川 淳一 Yoshiro KANEKO and Jun-ichi KADOKAWA |
<要旨>Polysaccharides with helical structures such as amylose and schizophyllan
are known as host compounds that form inclusion complexes with various
guest compounds. Recently, it has been found that the helical polysaccharides
include not only the compounds with relatively lower molecular weight,
but also the polymers. This review deals with the recent research developments
in the supramolecular complexes composed of the helical polysaccharides
and polymers. Keywords: Polysaccharide / Amylose / Schizophyllan / Inclusion Complex / Supramolecule |

ファインナノマテリアルとしての多糖機能の探求 Natural Polysaccharides Act as Fine Nanomaterials |
沼田 宗典 Munenori NUMATA |
<要旨>β-1,3-Glucans act as unique natural nanotubes and can accept functional
polymers, molecular assemblies and nanoparticles in an induced-fit manner
to create water-soluble one-dimensional nanocomposites. Although, most
polymer-polymer or polymer-molecule interactions take place in a random
fashion, β-1,3-glucans can interact with polymer or molecular guests in
a specific fashion and can be used to construct well-regulated one-dimensional
superstructures, which is applicable toward fine nanomaterials. Keywords: Polysaccharide / Supramolecular Chemistry / Nanotube / Nanomaterials |

<要旨>The development of chiral stationary phases, among which those based on
cellulose and amylose are the most widely used, has made remarkable contribution
to the science and technology concerning chiral molecules. Studies on the
separation mechanism suggest the rigid and large monomeric units of polysaccharide
can afford chiral spaces accepting guest molecules. Keywords: Cellulose / Amylase / Chiral / Separation / Chromatography / Force-Field Calculation |

リビングラジカル重合による精密材料設計 Precise Materials Design by Living Radical Polymerization |
辻井 敬亘・大野 工司 Yoshinobu TSUJII and Kohji OHNO |
<要旨> Living radical polymerization (LRP) has attracted enormous attention over
the past decade for providing simple and robust synthetic routes to low-polydispersity
polymers including simple homopolymers, end-functionalized polymers, block/random/gradient
copolymers, and functional polymers. LRP also successfully controls the
topology or branched structure of polymer architectures, giving well-defined
star/hyper-branched/ comb-like (bottle-brush) polymers and crosslinked
polymer networks. Recent successful application of LRP made it possible
to densely graft these polymers on various substrates, firstly producing
“concentrated” polymer brushes with structure and properties quite different
and unpredictable from those of the “semi-dilute” polymer brushes previously
studied. This article highlights the recent development of LRP fabricating
well-defined polymer architectures from the viewpoint of novel materials
design, which can be achieved by optimization of reaction conditions in
LPR. Keywords: Materials Design / Living Radical Polymerization / Controlled Polymerization / Topology / Gelation / Branched Polymer / Polymer Brush / Polymer Architecture |
