Self-immolative polymers are a special kind of degradable polymers that depolymerize into small molecules through a cascade of reactions upon stimuli-triggered cleavage of the polymer chain ends. This work reports the design and synthesis of a fluoride-triggered self-immolative polyester. A 2,4-disubstitued 4-hydroxy butyrate is first confirmed to quickly cyclize in solution to form a γ-butyrolactone derivative. Then, the Passerini three component reaction (P-3CR) of an AB dimer (A: aldehyde, B: carboxylic acid) with tert-butyl isocyanide or oligo(ethylene glycol) isocyanide affords two poly(2,4-disubstitued 4-hydroxybutyrate) derivatives (P2 and P3). Two silyl ether end-capped polymers (P4 and P5) are abtained from P2 and P3, and their degradation in solution is examined by NMR spectrum and size exclusion chromatography. Polymers P4 and P5 are stable in the absence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF), while in the presence of TBAF, the molar masses of P4 and P5 gradually decrease with time together with the increase of the amount of formed 2,4-disubstitued γ-butyrolactone. The depolymerization mechanism is proposed. The first step is the fast removal of the silyl ether by fluoride. Then, the released hydroxyl group initiates the quick head-to-tail depolymerization of the polyester via intramolecular cyclization.
