Synthesis of oligosaccharide-branched ribofuranan by ring-opening polymerization of a new anhydroribo trisaccharide monomer.

abstract：:In this preliminary work we have prepared a fluorinated polymer capable of solubilizing an appreciable amount of O(2) and, at the same time, maintaining a higher water solubility than perfluoroalkanes investigated as injectable O(2) carriers. In particular, we describe the synthesis and characterization of a new macro...
