Homopolymer and block copolymer bearing carbohydrate side chain functionality were obtained by grafting glucothiose onto alkene functional scaffolds via a thiol-ene click reaction and the resulting copolymer was used to form thermo-responsive micelles as a potential drug carrier.

2-(Trimethylsilyl) ethyl Glycosides. Transformation into the Corresponding 1-O-Acyl Sugars.
Several critical aspects of cross-linked polyanhydrides made using thiol-ene polymerization are reported, in particular the erosion, release, and solution properties, along with their cytotoxicity toward fibroblast cells. The monomers used to synthesize these polyanhydrides were 4-pentenoic anhydride and pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate).
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are important components of the extracellular matrix that have attracted great interest for drug delivery and pharmaceutical applications due to their diverse biological functions. Among GAGs, heparosan (Hep), a biosynthetic precursor of heparin, has recently emerged as a
