The synthesis of a vinyl polymer with two different fluorescent dye end groups using reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization is described. Use of a pentafluorophenyl (PFP) activated ester chain transfer agent (CTA) provided a polymer with an α end group that was reactive toward amines and a dithioester ω end group. The α PFP ester was amidated with Oregon Green Cadaverin. This did not harm the ω dithioester, which was subsequently aminolyzed with an excess of n-propylamine in the presence of Texas Red-2-sulfonamidoethyl methanethiosulfonate, resulting in a disulfide bond connecting the second dye to the polymer chain. Excess dyes and side products were removed by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) using a UV−vis detector could verify the presence of each dye on the polymer chain and the absence of free dyes. The synthesis of the polymer by a living radical technique and the mild complementary conjugation methods conducted after polymerizatio...
