- Abstract:
- This contribution deals with the synthesis and subsequent bulk polymerization of multifunctional electron-deficient internal alkynes with several multifunctional azides in a metal-free 1,3-dipolar azide–alkyne cycloaddition. The biocompatibility of alkynes, azides, and resulting networks was investigated in a cell biological study. All monomers revealed distinctive concentration-dependent cytotoxic properties. These harmful side effects on the cell integrity were completely diminished after polymerization of the educts resulting in materials with highly biocompatible properties.
