| Abstract | A water-soluble self-associating amphiphilic copolymer was employed to provide a microenvironment for the solvation of a hydrogen-bonding barbiturate artificial receptor, to facilitate molecular recognition in water. The receptor-attached amphiphilic polymer (RP) was synthesized through random copolymerization of 3% (mol) barbiturate receptor-monomer, 70% (mol) 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate, and 27% (mol) n-dodecyl acrylate. Difference UV spectra of pH 6.5 aqueous solutions of phenobarbital and receptor-polymer (RP) gave peaks and valleys at 272 and 301 nm respectively, consistent with binding characteristics of monomeric barbiturate receptors in chloroform. Specific association between phenobarbital and the receptor-polymer was further indicated based on investigations of a receptor-free control polymer (CP) of similar polar/nonpolar monomer ratio. Micellar electrokinetic chromatography was applied for studying polymer-phenobarbital association, by capillary electrophoresis. |
