Abstract
The development of antioxidant wound dressings to remove excessive free radicals around wounds is essential for wound healing. In this study, we developed an efficient strategy to prepare antioxidant self-healing hydrogels as wound dressings by combining multicomponent reactions (MCRs) and postpolymerization modification. A polymer containing ferrocene and phenylboronic acid groups was developed via the Biginelli reaction, followed by efficient modification. This polymer is antioxidant due to its ferrocene moieties and can rapidly cross-link poly(vinyl alcohol) to realize an antioxidant self-healing hydrogel through dynamic borate ester linkages. This hydrogel has low cytotoxicity and is biocompatible. In in vivo experiments, this hydrogel is superior to existing clinical dressings in promoting wound healing. This study demonstrates the value of the Biginelli reaction in exploring biomaterials, potentially offering insights into the design of other multifunctional polymers and related materials using different MCRs.

Abstract
This research presents a new approach to facilely fabricating a multifunctional film using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the base material. The film is modified chemically to incorporate various desirable properties such as high transparency, UV-shielding, antibacterial activity, and fluorescence. The fabrication process of this film is straightforward and efficient. The modified film showed exceptional UV-blocking capability, effectively blocking 100% of UV radiation. It also exhibits strong antibacterial properties. Additionally, the film emitted bright blue fluorescence, which can be useful in various optical and sensing applications. Despite the chemical modification, the film retained the excellent properties of PVA, including high transparency (90%) at 550 nm and good mechanical strength. Furthermore, it demonstrated remarkable stability even under harsh conditions such as exposure to long-term UV radiation, extreme temperatures (-40 or 120 °C), or immersion in different solvents. Overall, this work showcases a promising strategy to develop versatile, structurally stable, transparent, and flexible polymer films with multiple functionalities. These films have potential applications in various fields that require protection, such as packaging materials, biomedical devices, and optical components.

Abstract
Recently, multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have attracted much attention in polymer synthesis. As one of the most well-known MCRs, the Kabachnik-Fields (KF) reaction has been widely used in the development of new functional polymers. The KF reaction can efficiently introduce functional groups into polymer structures; thus, polymers prepared via the KF reaction have unique α-aminophosphonates and show important bioactivity, metal chelating abilities, and flame-retardant properties. In this mini-review, we mainly summarize the latest advances in the KF reaction to synthesize functional polymers for the preparation of heavy metal adsorbents, multifunctional hydrogels, flame retardants, and bioimaging probes. We also discuss some emerging applications of functional polymers prepared by means of the KF reaction. Finally, we put forward our perspectives on the further development of the KF reaction in polymer chemistry.

Abstract
Polymer synthesis via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) has opened avenues in polymer chemistry and led to the development of various types of functional polymers. Herein, we developed a strategy to prepare multifunctional polymers via the successive modification of dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-thione (DHPMT), which can be generated by the tricomponent Biginelli reaction. Four hydrophobic polymers were efficiently prepared by using DHPMT derivatives. These polymers can be dip-coated onto the oxidized copper mesh to obtain superhydrophobic meshes because of the strong attractive forces between the DHPMT derivatives and Cu(II). The optimized mesh has self-cleaning properties and outstanding stability in various liquid environments; it has also been successfully applied for oil/water separation with high separation efficiency and good durability. These results demonstrate that successive modification of DHPMT is a promising method for fabricating multifunctional polymers, which may have applications in polymer chemistry and materials science.

Abstract
Efficient routes for the preparation of functional self-healing hydrogels from functional polymers are needed. In this study, we developed a strategy to effectively produce a vanillin-modified poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA-vanillin) through the Hantzsch reaction. This polymer was cross-linked with a phenylboronic acid-containing polymer (PB) that was also prepared using the Hantzsch reaction to fabricate a hydrogel through borate ester linkages under mild conditions (25 °C, pH ∼ 7.4). This hydrogel had excellent antioxidant abilities due to the 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) rings and the vanillin moieties in the hydrogel structures; it was also self-healable and injectable owing to the dynamic borate ester linkages. Furthermore, the antioxidant self-healing hydrogel had low cytotoxicity and exhibited favorable safety in animal experiments, indicating its potential as a safe implantable cell or drug carrier. This study developed a method for preparing functional polymers and related self-healing hydrogels in a facile manner; it demonstrated the value of the Hantzsch reaction in exploiting antioxidant self-healing hydrogels for biomedical applications, which may provide insight into the design of other functional self-healing hydrogels through different multicomponent reactions.

Abstract
Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have been used to prepare polymers with appealing functions. The Biginelli reaction, one of the oldest and most famous MCRs, has sparked new scientific discoveries in polymer chemistry since 2013. Recent years have seen the Biginelli reaction stepping further from simple coupling tools; for example, the functions of the Biginelli product 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-(thi)ones (DHPM(T)) have been gradually exploited to develop new functional polymers. In this mini-review, we mainly summarize the recent progress of using the Biginelli reaction to identify polymers for biomedical applications. These polymers have been documented as antioxidants, anticancer agents, and bio-imaging probes. Moreover, we also provide a brief introduction to some emerging applications of the Biginelli reaction in materials and polymer science. Finally, we present our perspectives for the further development of the Biginelli reaction in polymer chemistry.

Abstract
Excessive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light is harmful to human health. However, the traditional preparation of anti-UV films through the doping of UV absorbers leads to unstable products. Chemical modification of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to fabricate functional derivatives expand the application of these materials. Herein, a 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) fluorescent ring with a conjugated structure as a strong UV-absorber group was introduced onto a polyvinyl alcohol acetoacetate (PVAA) film to improve its UV-blocking performance. Firstly, PVAA was prepared via transesterification using tert-butyl acetoacetate (t-BAA). Then, the Hantzsch reaction was carried out on the surface of the PVAA film at room temperature. The resulting film showed high transparency, bright fluorescence emission, good mechanical properties, and outstanding stability. The introduction of the hydrophobic carbon chain reduced the hydrophilicity and swelling capacity of the PVAA film. In addition, the conjugated structure endowed the fluorescent film with excellent UV-blocking performance, where almost 100% UVA and UVB spectra could be shielded. The UV-blocking properties of the prepared films were persistent when they were exposed to UV irradiation, solvents, and subjected to thermal treatment. This work presents a facile and environmentally-friendly strategy by which to fabricate a multifunctional PVA-based film, which holds great potential for application in the anti-counterfeiting and UV-blocking fields.

Abstract
The development of high quality magnetic self-healing hydrogels containing well-dispersed magnetic nanoparticle has been a challenging procedure due to unavailable methods of facilely introducing groups that can efficiently stabilize these magnetic nanoparticles in the self-healing hydrogels. In this research, a polymer containing both phenylboronic acid (PBA) and phosphonic acid (PA) groups has been developed by the Kabachnik-Fields (KF) reaction. This polymer well disperses iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) through the strong interactions between the PA groups and the surface of the IONPs; thus, this polymer effectively mixed IONPs and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) to form a hydrogel containing well-dispersed IONPs. The resulting hydrogel is self-healing, owing to the dynamic borate ester linkages. Moreover, the presence of the IONPs endowed the hydrogel with magnetic properties, also making it heat-responsive in an alternating magnetic field and expanding its application as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging. The magnetic self-healing hydrogel showed excellent biosafety properties in animal experiments, suggesting its potential as an injectable implant material for biological and medical applications. This research exploits a biocompatible magnetic self-healing hydrogel with well-dispersed IONPs, demonstrating the value of the KF reaction in the development of functional polymers and smart materials, which might prompt a broad study of multicomponent reactions in interdisciplinary fields.

Abstract
Excessive UV-B exposure is well known to be a risk factor for corneal phototoxicity including direct DNA damage and disturbances in the antioxidant balance. Here, we showed a successful synthesis of a water-soluble and biocompatible small molecule DHPM 1 with dihydropyrimidinthione skeleton, which could effectively protect human corneal epithelial (HCE-2) cells from UV-B damage. In separate experiments, DHPM 1 absorbed UV-B rays and exhibited scavenging activity against intracellular ROS induced by UV-B radiation, thereby reducing the levels of DNA fragmentation. Additionally, UV-B exposure increased the expression of cleaved caspase-3, as well as the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 at protein levels, while pretreatment with DHPM 1 significantly reversed these changes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a study based on dihydropyrimidinthione derivatives to develop a promising eye drops, which may well find extensive applications in UV-B caused corneal damage.

Abstract
A simple and novel methodology has been developed for the synthesis of 1,3-bis(carboxymethyl)imidazolium chloride [BCMIM][Cl] salt. The ionic salt [BCMIM][Cl] catalyzed the reaction among arylaldehydes; the substituted 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea/thiourea at 80 °C with 5 mol % under neat condition provided the substituted dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one/thiones in the synthesis step with yields of up to 96%. In addition, we synthesized the commercially available drug Monastrol by employing this methodology. The new synthesis method employs the benefits of a broad substrate scope, short reaction time, and high atom economy along with low catalyst loading in neat conditions, and is devoid of chromatographic purification. The ionic salt [BCMIM][Cl] was recycled and reused up to six cycles without substantial damage of its catalytic efficiency.

Abstract
We report the first successful combination of three distinct high-throughput techniques to deliver the accelerated design, synthesis, and property screening of a library of novel, bio-instructive, polymeric, comb-graft surfactants. These three-dimensional, surface-active materials were successfully used to control the surface properties of particles by forming a unimolecular deep layer on the surface of the particles via microfluidic processing. This strategy deliberately utilizes the surfactant to both create the stable particles and deliver a desired cell-instructive behavior. Therefore, these specifically designed, highly functional surfactants are critical to promoting a desired cell response. This library contained surfactants constructed from 20 molecularly distinct (meth)acrylic monomers, which had been pre-identified by HT screening to exhibit specific, varied, and desirable bacterial biofilm inhibitory responses. The surfactant's self-assembly properties in water were assessed by developing a novel, fully automated, HT method to determine the critical aggregation concentration. These values were used as the input data to a computational-based evaluation of the key molecular descriptors that dictated aggregation behavior. Thus, this combination of HT techniques facilitated the rapid design, generation, and evaluation of further novel, highly functional, cell-instructive surfaces by application of designed surfactants possessing complex molecular architectures.

Abstract
High-throughput (HT) development of new multifunctional polymers is accomplished by the combination of different HT tools established in polymer sciences in the last decade. Important advances are robotic/HT synthesis of polymer libraries, the HT characterization of polymers, and the application of spatially resolved polymer library formats, explicitly microarray and gradient libraries. HT polymer synthesis enables the generation of material libraries with combinatorial design motifs. Polymer composition, molecular weight, macromolecular architecture, etc. may be varied in a systematic, fine-graded manner to obtain libraries with high chemical diversity and sufficient compositional resolution as model systems for the screening of these materials for the functions aimed. HT characterization allows a fast assessment of complementary properties, which are employed to decipher quantitative structure-properties relationships. Moreover, these methods facilitate the HT determination of important surface parameters by spatially resolved characterization methods, including time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Here current methods for the high-throughput robotic synthesis of multifunctional polymers as well as their characterization are presented and advantages as well as present limitations are discussed.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymers undergo changes under different environmental conditions. Among them, phenylboronic acid (PBA) containing polymers (PBA-polymers) are unique, because they can selectively react with diols to generate borates that are sensitive to pH, sugars, and H2 O2 , and can be effectively used to synthesize smart drug carriers and self-healing hydrogels. Recently, multifunctional PBA-polymers (MF-PBA-polymers) have been developed using multicomponent reactions (MCRs) to introduce PBA groups into polymer structures. These MF-PBA-polymers have features similar to those of traditional PBA-polymers; moreover, they exhibit additional properties, such as fluorescence, antimicrobial activity, and antioxidant capability, when different MCRs are used. In this mini review, the preparation of these MF-PBA-polymers are summarized and the new properties/functions that have been introduced into these polymers using different MCRs are discussed. The uses of these MF-PBA-polymers as fluorescent cell anticoagulants, drug carriers, and gelators of functional self-healing hydrogels have been discussed. Additionally, the challenges encountered during their preparation are discussed and also the future developments in this field are touched upon.

Abstract
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is closely related to people's lives, but excess UV exposure has led to a series of problems. UV protection technology plays a vital role in our life. The most commonly adopted UV protection technology is to use UV-absorbing materials to make protective coatings, including sunscreen cream for human skin and sunscreen coating for materials. Conventional organic UV-protective coatings have low stability and are sensitive to heat, while inorganic UV-protective coating with highly efficient UV-protective performance usually need high processing temperatures and exhibit low transparency. Here, we report a Ti-PEG-Si cross-linked inorganic-organic hybrid material, which exhibits good UV-absorbing performance. By using these UV-absorbing materials, an efficient transparent UV-absorbing coating could be easily prepared at room temperature (298 K). The UV-absorbing coating is mainly composed of titanium and silicon connected by PEG200. PEG200 as a cross-linker can improve the UV-absorption performance of the coating and increase its visible light transmittance. At the same time, the existence of PEG200 can effectively increase the stability and elasticity of the coating and maintain its mechanical properties after UV irradiation. Furthermore, the coating could maintain highly UV-protective performance and could be transparent even after thermal treatment at high temperature (973 K). From this point of view, the hybrid materials have considerable application potential in next-generation UV protective coatings, especially with their utilization in heat-sensitive substrates or under high-temperature conditions.

Abstract
Providing access to highly diverse polymer structures by multicomponent reactions is highly desirable; efficient Meldrum's acid-based multicomponent reactions, however, have been rarely highlighted in polymer chemistry. Here, the three-component reaction of Meldrum's acid, indole, and aldehyde is introduced into polymer synthesis. Direct multicomponent polymerization of Meldrum's acid, dialdehyde, and diindole can perform under mild conditions, resulting in complex Meldrum's acid-containing polymers with well-defined structures, and high molecular weights. Additionally, nearly quantitative postpolymerization modification can also perform via this Meldrum's acid-based multicomponent reaction. These results indicate that Meldrum's acid-based multicomponent reaction will be a potential tool to prepare novel polymers.

Abstract
Radioprotectors for acute injuries caused by large doses of ionizing radiation are vital to national security, public health and future development of humankind. Here, we develop a strategy to explore safe and efficient radioprotectors by combining Hantzsch's reaction, high-throughput methods and polymer chemistry. A water-soluble polymer with low-cytotoxicity and an excellent anti-radiation capability has been achieved. In in vivo experiments, this polymer is even better than amifostine, which is the only approved radioprotector for clinical applications, in effectively protecting zebrafish embryos from fatally large doses of ionizing radiation (80 Gy X-ray). A mechanistic study also reveals that the radioprotective ability of this polymer originates from its ability to efficiently prevent DNA damage due to high doses of radiation. This is an initial attempt to explore polymer radioprotectors via a multi-component reaction. It allows exploiting functional polymers and provides the underlying insights to guide the design of radioprotective polymers.

Abstract
Herein, a concise overview of the use of heavier main group elements in multicomponent reactions and their use in polymer chemistry is provided. Incorporating heavier elements into macromolecular structures via multicomponent reactions allows for the rapid development of materials with unique properties that are not readily achieved using carbon, nitrogen, and/or oxygen. Elements in Group 13, Group 14, Group 15, and Group 16 are specifically covered examining both the familiar and unfamiliar properties of these elements and how they are used in multicomponent chemistry. Furthermore, elements that both take part in the reaction mechanism and remain in the macromolecular structure upon completion are only briefly explored. Some of the state-of-the-art work going into developing these heavier element multicomponent reactions are highlighted and it is hoped to inspire other polymer chemists to explore other parts of the periodic table.

Abstract
The Hantzcsh reaction is a robust four-component reaction for the efficient generation of 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP) derivatives. Recently, this reaction has been introduced into polymer chemistry in order to develop polymers having 1,4-DHP structures in the main and/or side chains. The 1,4-DHP groups confer new properties/functions to the polymers. This mini-review summarizes the recent studies on the development of new functional polymers by using the Hantzsch reaction. Several synthetic approaches, including polycondensation, post-polymerization modification (PPM), monomer to polymer strategy, and one-pot strategy are introduced; different applications (protein conjugation, formaldehyde detection, drug carrier, and anti-bacterial adhesion) of the resulting polymers are emphasized. Meanwhile, the future development of the Hantzsch reaction in exploring new functional polymers is also discussed.

Abstract
Small molecular antioxidants are almost ineffective in regulating harmful oxidative stress in vivo because of their poor bioavailability. Polymer antioxidants are a promising alternative to address this issue, but their laborious synthetic routes limit their development. In this study, aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes are used to synthesize a family of polymers containing different α-aminophosphonate pendant groups via a facile one-pot method that combines the Kabachnik-Fields (KF) reaction and free radical polymerization. The structure-property relationship study of these polymers reveals the KF moieties in polymer structures confer radical scavenging ability on polymers. The radical scavenging ability and cytotoxicity of these polymers are evaluated in a stepwise manner to identify a biocompatible polymer antioxidant that can effectively protect the cells from H2 O2 -induced oxidative damage. This is the first attempt to develop antioxidative polymers by the KF reaction. It highlights the feasibility of synthesizing new functional polymers using multicomponent reactions, which has important implications for organic and polymer chemistry.

Abstract
We developed a polymer-drug strategy to explore anticancer polymers. A series of monomers containing groups with potential anticancer activity have been facilely prepared through the Biginelli reaction. These monomers were used to produce water-soluble polymers through convenient radical copolymerization. The resulting polymers are biocompatible and can be directly used to suppress proliferation of different cancer cells without the release of small molecules. Theoretical calculations revealed that Biginelli groups in polymers had strong interaction with the Eg5 protein, which is highly expressed in cancer cells and is closely related to cell mitosis. Subsequent cell experiments confirmed that a screened polymer is efficient in inhibiting mitosis in different cancer cells. Our study of exploring functional polymers via the combination of multicomponent reactions and theoretical calculation resulted in promising anticancer polymers, which might pave a path for de novo designing of functional polymers and have important implications in the fields of organic, computational, and polymer chemistry.

Abstract
In this paper, an antioxidant self-healing hydrogel has been prepared. The Biginelli reaction was used to prepare a monomer containing phenylboronic acid (PBA) and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (DHPM) groups. This PBA-DHPM monomer was copolymerized with poly(ethylene glycol methyl ether) methacrylate (PEGMA) to produce a water-soluble copolymer via radical polymerization. The resulting copolymer quickly crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) through borate ester bonds to generate a self-healing hydrogel under mild conditions (pH ∼ 7.4, 25 °C). The prepared hydrogel showed an inherent antioxidant ability because of the DHPM moieties in the hydrogel structure. It also showed no cytotoxicity, and in an in vivo mouse model the hydrogel injected under the skin of a mouse hardly caused any adverse reactions, suggesting that this hydrogel could be used as an implantable biomaterial. This first report of an antioxidant self-healing hydrogel demonstrates a new application of the Biginelli reaction in materials science, which might prompt a broad study of multicomponent reactions in interdisciplinary fields.

Abstract
The Hantzsch and free-radical polymerization reactions were combined in a one-pot high-throughput (HTP) system to simultaneously prepare 30 unique polymers in parallel. Six aldehydes derived from natural products were used as the starting materials to rapidly prepare the library of 30 poly(1,4-dihydropyridines). From this library, HTP evaluation methods led to the identification of an antibacterial polymer. Mechanistic studies revealed that the dihydropyridine group in the polymer side-chain structure plays an important role in resisting bacterial attachment to the polymer surface, thus leading to the antibacterial function of this polymer. This research demonstrates the value of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) in interdisciplinary fields by discovering functional polymers for possible practical applications. It also provides insights to further developing new functional polymers using MCRs and HTP methods with important implications in organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, and materials science.

Abstract
An efficient and straightforward modification of starch using renewable and commercially available aromatic aldehydes (benzaldehyde, vanillin, and p-anisaldehyde) and urea via the Biginelli multicomponent reaction is reported in this work. First, starch acetoacetate (SAA) with a degree of substitution ranging from 1.4 to 2.5, depending on the reaction time or the molar ratio of reactants, is prepared. SAA is then modified with different aromatic aldehydes and urea via the Biginelli reaction. The modified products are characterized by ATR-IR, NMR, and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The processability of the products is also investigated using a hot press instrument, revealing that glycerol is a suitable and renewable plasticizer for the Biginelli products.

Abstract
Small molecule antioxidants have little impact on oxidative stress in vivo because of their poor bioavailability. To explore an antioxidant for in vivo applications, a polymeric antioxidant containing a ferrocene moiety was developed. The ferrocene-containing monomer was synthesized through the robust tricomponent Biginelli reaction with a high yield. The corresponding water-soluble copolymer was conveniently prepared via radical polymerization. Both the ferrocene moiety and the Biginelli structure (dihydropyrimidin-2(H)-one) contributed to the remarkable radical scavenging ability of this highly biocompatible copolymer. It was more efficient than traditional small molecule antioxidants at protecting cells against fatal oxidative stress. This copolymer also showed clear therapeutic activity in counteracting oxidation-induced acute liver damage in a live mouse model. Our study into functional organometallic polymers resulted in a promising polymeric biomaterial that may find therapeutic applications and have important implications in the fields of organic chemistry and polymer chemistry.

Abstract
To search for synthetic agents with low cytotoxicity and good antibacterial activity is essential for antimicrobial applications. Here we report a high throughput technique that carried out in multiwell plates via recyclable-catalyst-aided, opened-to-air, and sunlight-photolyzed RAFT (ROS-RAFT) polymerization. By using this method, three key monomers (MAG the sugar unit, DMAPMA the positively charged monomer, and DEMAA the hydrophobic monomer) can be polymerized in a controlled manner to afford glycopolymers. This simple high throughput technology is used to synthesize glycopolymers with variable compositions. The bacterial adhesion/killing ability and cytotoxicity of synthesized polymers have been evaluated, and glycopolymers with certain composition can achieve a balance of low cytotoxic and good antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Formaldehyde (FA) has been detected via the Hantzsch reaction for many decades. However, the Hantzsch reaction has been rarely used to detect FA in biological systems due to the disadvantages of small-molecule probes (including toxicity and poor water solubility). In this study, polymeric fluorescent probes were developed to resolve these issues associated with small molecules, and FA in living systems was successfully detected via the Hantzsch reaction. These water-soluble polymers were easily scaled-up (∼25 g) by radical polymerization using commercial monomers. These polymers exhibited similar, albeit better, sensitivity to FA compared to water-soluble small molecules, primarily indicative of the advantages of polymers for the detection of FA via the Hantzsch reaction. The polymer structures were highly biocompatible with the probes; thus, these polymers can effectively detect endogenous FA in cells or zebrafish in a safe manner. This result confirmed the superiority of polymers in safety as biocompatible materials. This study highlights a straightforward method for exploring probes for the detection of FA in living systems. It offers functional polymers for bioimaging and extends the application scope of the Hantzsch reaction, reflecting the utility of a broad study of organic reactions in interdisciplinary fields as well as possible key implications in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, and polymer chemistry.
