Recently, polyrotaxanes have attracted much interest from researchers from the viewpoint of nanotechnological applications.[1] In particular, well-defined polyrotaxanes that consist of simple components are becoming important for the construction of more sophisticated molecular machines. There are a number of designs and strategies for the preparation of polyrotaxanes.[2] Among these approaches, the side-chain polyrotaxane is one of the simplest architectures, but there are only a few examples of side-chain polyrotaxanes that contain cyclodextrin (CD),[3] apart from those of Ritter and co-workers.[4] Extensive studies by Ritter [4] demonstrated the successful synthesis of side-chain polyrotaxanes primarily in organic media from methylated β-CD and various polymers.Over the past decade, we have been studying the interaction of cyclodextrins with polymer side chains attached to water-soluble polymers.[5] Herein, we report an example of the successful construction of CD-based side-chain polyrotaxanes in aqueous media, in which CD includes polymer side chains preferentially from the side with the secondary hydroxy functionality, by using a combination of simple components, α-CD and hydrophobically modified poly-(acrylic acid)(pAA).
