Abstract
Designing grafted biodegradable polymers with tailored multi-functional properties is one of the most researched fields with extensive biomedical applications. Among many biodegradable polymers, polycarbonates have gained much attention due to their ease of synthesis, high drug loading, and excellent biocompatibility profiles. Among various monomers, 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl) propionic acid (bis-MPA) derived cyclic carbonate monomers have been extensively explored in terms of their synthesis as well as their polymerization. Since the late 90s, significant advancements have been made in the design of bis-MPA derived cyclic carbonate monomers as well as in their reaction schemes. Currently, bis-MPA derived polycarbonates have taken a form of an entire platform with a multitude of applications, the latest being in the field of nanotechnology, targeted drug, and nucleic acid delivery. The present review outlines an up to date developments that have taken place in the last two decades in the design, synthesis, and biomedical applications of bis-MPA derived cyclic carbonates and their (co)polymers.

Abstract
The synthesis of well-defined propargyl-functional aliphatic polycarbonates is achieved via the organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization of prop-2-yn-1-yl 2-oxo-1,3,6-dioxazocane-6-carboxylate (P-8NC) using a wide variety of commercially available or readily made, shelf-stable organocatalysts. The resulting homopolymers show low dispersities and end-group fidelity, with the versatility of the system being demonstrated by the synthesis of telechelic copolymers and block copolymers with molar mass up to 40 kDa.

Abstract
In order for synthetic polymers to find widespread practical application as biomaterials, their syntheses must be easy to perform, utilising freely available building blocks, and should generate products which have no adverse effects on cells or tissue. In addition, it is highly desirable that the synthesis platform for the biomaterials can be adapted to generate polymers with a range of physical properties and macromolecular architectures, and with multiple functional handles to allow derivatisation with 'actives' for sensing or therapy. Here we describe the syntheses of amphiphilic tri- and tetra-block copolymers, using diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-5-ene (DBU) as a metal-free catalyst for ring-opening polymerisations of the widely-utilised monomer lactide combined with a functionalised protected cyclic carbonate. These syntheses employed PEGylated macroinitiators with varying chain lengths and architectures, as well as a labile-ester methacrylate initiator, and produced block copolymers with good control over monomer incorporation, molar masses, side-chain and terminal functionality and physico-chemical properties. Regardless of the nature of the initiators, the fidelity of the hydroxyl end group was maintained as confirmed by a second ROP chain extension step, and polymers with acryloyl/methacryloyl termini were able to undergo a second tandem reaction step, in particular thiol-ene click and RAFT polymerisations for the production of hyperbranched materials. Furthermore, the polymer side-chain functionalities could be easily deprotected to yield an active amine which could be subsequently coupled to a drug molecule in good yields. The resultant amphiphilic copolymers formed a range of unimolecular or kinetically-trapped micellar-like nanoparticles in aqueous environments, and the non-cationic polymers were all well-tolerated by MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The rapid and facile route to such highly adaptable polymers, as demonstrated here, offers promise for a range of bio materials applications.

Abstract
In the present work, a new and facile strategy for the synthesis of light-responsive polyurethanes (LrPUs) based on serinol with o-nitrobenzyl pendent groups is developed. Stable monodisperse nanoparticles from these LrPUs can be formulated reproducibly in a simple manner, which is shown by dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. Upon irradiation with UV light, both polymers and nanoparticles undergo rapid degradation, which is investigated by DLS, scanning electron microscopy, size exclusion chromatography, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The nanoparticles are also employed for the encapsulation of the model drug Nile Red, and by exposure to UV light, a burst release of the payload is detected via fluorescence spectroscopy. This strategy can be easily applied to the straightforward synthesis of various new serinol-based monomers with different stimuli-responsive properties and therefore expand the family of biodegradable polymers.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymers are of current interest and chemical functionality in such materials is often demanded in advanced biomedical applications. Functional groups often are not tolerated in the polymerization process of ring-opening polymerization (ROP) and therefore protective groups need to be applied. Advantageously, several orthogonally reactive functions are available, which do not demand protection during ROP. We give an insight into available, orthogonally reactive cyclic monomers and the corresponding functional synthetic and biodegradable polymers, obtained from ROP. Functionalities in the monomer are reviewed, which are tolerated by ROP without further protection and allow further post-modification of the corresponding chemically functional polymers after polymerization. Synthetic concepts to these monomers are summarized in detail, preferably using precursor molecules. Post-modification strategies for the reported functionalities are presented and selected applications highlighted.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive polymers have attracted attention for their potential in photodynamic therapy. Herein, we report the ROS-responsive aliphatic polycarbonates prepared by the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of three six-membered cyclic carbonate monomers with ethyl selenide, phenyl selenide or ethyl telluride groups. Under catalysis of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU), all three monomers underwent the controlled anionic ROP, showing a feature of equilibrium polymerization due to the bulky effect of 5,5-disubstituents. With PEG macroinitiator, three series amphiphilic block copolymers were prepared. They could form spherical nanoparticles of ∼100 nm, which were stable in neutral phosphate buffer but dissociated rapidly under triggering of H2O2. We studied the H2O2-induced oxidation profiles of selenide- or telluride-containing small molecules by 1H NMR and revealed the factors that affect the oxidation kinetics and products. On this basis, the oxidative degradation mechanism of the copolymer nanoparticles has been clarified. Under the same oxidative condition, the telluride-containing nanoparticle degraded with the fastest rate while the phenyl selenide-based one degraded most slowly. These ROS-responsive nanoparticles could load photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) and anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). Under red light irradiation, Ce6-sensitized production of 1O2 that triggered the degradation of nanoparticles, resulting in an accelerated payload release. In vitro cytotoxicity assays demonstrate that the nanoparticles coloaded with DOX and Ce6 exhibited a synergistic cell-killing effect to MCF-7 cells, representing a novel responsive nanoplatform for PDT and/or chemotherapy.

Abstract
Fatty acids were used as precursors for the synthesis of photosensitive polycarbonate materials. In order to avoid multistep reactions, a simple and straightforward methodology toward the synthesis of photosensitive monomers has been developed. Hence, a fatty acid-based cyclic carbonate bearing an unsaturation was synthesized and subsequently polymerized in a controlled manner (Đ = 1.07) by organo-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization (ROP). A thio-cinnamate derivative was then readily synthesized via a one-pot reaction and grafted onto the polycarbonate backbone by thiol-ene reaction. The content of photoresponsive cinnamoyl moiety grafted on the polycarbonate was tunable with the reaction time. Such functionalized polycarbonates could be crosslinked (by UV irradiation at 365 nm) and partially decrosslinked (irradiated at 254 nm) and exhibit versatile properties ranging from rather tough materials to elastomeric networks with respect to the content of the photosensitive cinnamoyl moiety grafted on the polymer.

Abstract
We developed a biodegradable polycarbonate that demonstrates antithrombogenicity and vascular cell adhesion via organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization of a trimethylene carbonate (TMC) analogue bearing a methoxy group. The monoether-tagged polycarbonate demonstrates a platelet adhesion property that is 93 and 89% lower than those of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and polyTMC, respectively. In contrast, vascular cell adhesion properties of the polycarbonate are comparable to those controls, indicating a potential for selective cell adhesion properties. This difference in the cell adhesion property is well associated with surface hydration, which affects protein adsorption and denaturation. Fibrinogen is slightly denatured on the monoether-tagged polycarbonate, whereas fibronectin is highly activated to expose the RGD motif for favorable vascular cell adhesion. The surface hydration, mainly induced by the methoxy side chain, also contributes to slowing the enzymatic degradation. Consequently, the polycarbonate exhibits decent blood compatibility, vascular cell adhesion properties, and biodegradability, which is promising for applications in resorbable vascular grafts and stents.

Abstract
In this study, antimicrobial polymers are synthesized by the organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization of an eight-membered heterocyclic carbonate monomer that is subsequently quaternized with methyl iodide. These polymers demonstrate activity against clinically relevant Gram-positive Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus, Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and fungus Candida albicans with fast killing kinetics. Importantly, the polymer efficiently inhibits biofilm growth and lyses existing biofilm, leading to a reduction in biomass and cell viability. In addition, the macromolecular antimicrobial is less likely to induce resistance as it acts via a membrane-lytic mechanism. The polymer is not cytotoxic toward mammalian cells with LD50 of 99.0 ± 11.6 mg kg-1 in mice through i.v. injection. In an S. aureus blood stream infection mouse model, the polymer removes bacteria from the blood more rapidly than the antibiotic Augmentin. At the effective dose, the polymer treatment does not damage liver and kidney tissues or functions. In addition, blood electrolyte balance remains unchanged after the treatment. The low cost of starting materials, ease of synthesis, nontoxicity, broad spectrum activity with fast killing kinetics, and in vivo antimicrobial activity make these macromolecular antimicrobials ideal candidates for prevention of sepsis and treatment of infections.

Abstract
Introduction of hydrophilic components, particularly amines and zwitterions, onto a degradable polymer platform, while maintaining precise control over the polymer composition, has been a challenge. Recognizing the importance of these hydrophilic residues in multiple aspects of the nanobiomedicine field, herein, a straightforward synthetic route to access well-defined amphiphilic and hydrophilic degradable block copolymers from diethanolamine-derived functional eight-membered N-substituted aliphatic cyclic carbonates is reported. By this route, tertiary amine, secondary amine, and zwitterion residues can be incorporated across the polymer backbone. Demonstration of pH-responsiveness of these hydrophilic residues and their utility in the development of drug-delivery vehicles, catered for the specific requirements of respective model drugs (doxorubicin and diclofenac sodium salt) are shown. As hydrophilic components in degradable polymers play crucial roles in the biological interactions, these materials offers opportunities to expand the scope and applicability of aliphatic cyclic carbonates. Our approach to these functional polycarbonates will expand the range of biocompatible and biodegradable synthetic materials available for nanobiomedicine, including drug and gene delivery, antimicrobials, and hydrophilic polymers as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) alternatives.

Abstract
Postpolymerization modification is a critical strategy for the development of functional polycarbonate scaffolds for medicinal applications. To expand the scope of available postpolymerization functionalization methods, polycarbonates containing pendant thioether groups were synthesized by organocatalyzed ring-opening polymerization. The thioether group allowed for the postpolymerization ring-opening of functional epoxides, affording a wide variety of sulfonium-functionalized A-B diblock and A-B-A triblock polycarbonate copolymers. The pendant thioether groups were found to be compatible with previously developed postsynthesis functionalization methods allowing for selective and orthogonal modifications of the polycarbonates.

Abstract
The zwitterionic ring-opening polymerization of N-functionalized eight-membered cyclic carbonates with N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) in the absence of alcohol initiators generates cyclic polycarbonates of Mn ∼ 30-100 kDa. The polymerization behavior of these eight-membered cyclic azacarbonates depends sensitively on the nature of the nitrogen substituent. The N-benzyl-substituted eight-membered cyclic carbonate (8CCBn) polymerizes readily with 1,3-diisopropyl-4,5-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene to generate cyclic polycarbonates with molecular weights of Mn = 14 000 to 96 000 Da. In contrast, the N-phenyl-substituted cyclic carbonate (8CCPh) catalytically dimerizes in the presence of the NHC to afford the crystalline cyclic dimer. The zwitterionic ring-opening copolymerization of δ-valerolactone (VL) and the cyclic carbonates afford gradient cyclic copolymers. The cyclic topology of both the homopolymers and copolymers was supported by MALDI-TOF MS and intrinsic viscosity measurements. 13C NMR and differential scanning calorimetry of the cyclic copolymers are indicative of a gradient sequence distribution as a consequence of the more rapid enchainment of the cyclic carbonates relative to valerolactone.

Abstract
We report a new type of oxidation-promoted fast-degradable aliphatic poly(carbonate)s (PCs) prepared by the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of a six-membered cyclic carbonate containing a phenylboronic pinacol ester. The ROP of this monomer catalyzed by 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) proceeded rapidly at ambient temperature with a good control over molecular weight and polydispersity at high monomer conversion. The H2O2-induced decomposition of this cyclic monomer and its noncyclic carbonate analogue was first studied by 1H NMR in order to clearly demonstrate the degradation mechanism of the PCs. The results of 1H NMR, GPC, and Nile Red fluorescence measurements revealed that the PC nanoparticles formulated by the o/w emulsion method were stable in neutral buffer, but upon triggering with H2O2, they underwent rapid surface degradation via the consecutive processes of oxidation, 1,6-elimination, release of CO2, and intramolecular cyclization. The degradation rates of the nanoparticles were dependent on the concentration of H2O2, and the nanoparticles were even sensitive to 0.5 mM of H2O2.

Abstract
Aliphatic polycarbonates were discovered a long time ago, with their conventional applications mostly limited to low molecular weight oligomeric intermediates for copolymerization with other polymers. Recent developments in polymerization techniques have overcome the difficulty in preparing high molecular weight aliphatic polycarbonates. These in turn, along with new functional monomers, have enabled the preparation of a wide range of aliphatic polycarbonates with diverse chemical compositions and structures. This review summarizes the latest polymerization techniques for preparing well-defined functional aliphatic polycarbonates, as well as the new applications of those aliphatic polycarbonates, esecially in the biomedical field.
