Fluorinated polymer surfactants bearing an alternating peptide skeleton prepared by three-component polycondensation.

A new species of fluorinated polymer surfactant was developed by three component polycondensation analogous to Ugi four-component condensation. The surfactant exhibited unique surface properties, which made cellulose-based materials hydrophobic and decreased the surface tension of CHCl3. It turned out that the polymer forms micelles in CHCl3.
