Conspectus Polymer sustainability is synonymous with “bioderived polymers” and the
zeitgeist of “using renewable feedstocks”. However, this sentiment does not adequately …

Maleimides are gaining a great deal of attention in both scientific and industrial communities
since they can be used in high performance macromolecular systems: thermosets with high …

The mechanism and kinetics of thiol–maleimide “click” reactions carried out under a variety
of conditions have been investigated computationally and using experimental competition …

Currently, most anti-cancer therapies are still haunted by serious and deleterious adverse
effects. Here, we report a highly biocompatible tumor cell-targeting delivery systems utilizing …

Background: Drug delivery systems have demonstrated promising results to cross blood–

Thiol modified chitosan (CsSH) was covalently cross–linked with a water–soluble
bismaleimide (BMI) to obtain chitosan–based hydrogels by thiol–Michael addition reaction …

A straightforward, isocyanate-free method for the synthesis of functionalized polyurethanes,
based on amine–thiol–ene conjugation, was elaborated. Aminolysis of a readily available …

A conceptual proof for the double modification (aminolysis and subsequent thiol-click
