4-Dibenzocyclooctynol (DIBO) as an initiator for poly([varepsilon]-caprolactone) : copper-free clickable polymer and nanofiber-based scaffolds

• Utilization of 4-dibenzocyclooctynol (DIBO) as an initiator for the ring-opening polymerization of [varepsilon]-caprolactone yields well-defined, high molecular weight poly([varepsilon]-caprolactone) end functionalized with DIBO (DIBO-PCL). Nanofibers bearing reactive DIBO groups were generated via electrospinning and functionalized post-fabrication with azide-tethered molecules.
