abstract = {This work focuses on the synthesis and self-assembly of
triphilic poly(2-oxazoline) triblock copolymers with high
fluorine content toward our future aim of developing
poly(2-oxazoline) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast
agents. A highly fluorinated 2-substituted-2-oxazoline
monomer, namely 2-(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)-2-oxazoline,
was synthesized using the Grignard reaction. The
polymerization kinetics of the synthesized monomer was
studied, and it was used for the preparation of triblock
copolymers with hydrophilic 2-methyl-2-oxazoline,
hydrophobic 2-octyl-2-oxazoline, and fluorophilic blocks by
cationic ring-opening polymerization yielding polymers with
low relatively dispersity (1.2–1.4). The presence of the
blocks with the different nature in one copolymer structure
facilitated self-assembly of the copolymers in water and
dimethyl sulfoxide as observed by dynamic light scattering,
cryo-transmission electron microscopy, and small-angle
neutron scattering. The nanoparticle morphology is strongly
influenced by the order and length of each block and the
nature of solvent, leading to nanoparticles with
core–shell structure as confirmed by small-angle neutron
scattering. The reported poly(2-oxazoline) block copolymers
with high fluorine content have high potential for future
development of MRI contrast agents.},
