This paper describes the synthesis of functional amphiphilic poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide)-block-poly(lauryl methacrylate) copolymers by RAFT polymerization via the intermediate step of activated ester block copolymers (pentafluoro-phenyl methacrylate). Block copolymers with molecular weights from 12000-28000 g/mol and PDIs of about 1.2 have been obtained. The amphiphilic diblock copolymers form stable super structures (nanoaggregates) by self-organization in aqueous solution. The diameters of these particles are between 100 and 200 nm and depend directly on the molecular weight of the block copolymer. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of these nanoaggregates on cell viability and on the motility of adherent cells. Cytotoxicity was investigated by the MTS test and the fluctuation in cell shape was monitored employing ECIS (electrical cell-substrate impedance sensing). In these investigations, the formed particles are not cell toxic up to a concentration of 2 mg/mL. Thus., our polymeric particles offer potential as polymer therapeutics.
