Education: Saint-Petersburg State University, department of Chemistry, Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry (2011-2015), Saint-Petersburg State University, department of Chemistry, Master’s degree in Chemistry (2015-2017). Research experience: During bachelor's graduation work mechanism and kinetics of 2-alkyl-2-oxazoline cationic ring-opening polymerization, initiated by methane sulfonyl halides was studied. As a result of research it was shown, that alkyl sulfonyl halides can be used as effective initiators of oxazoline polymerization. Within the master's graduation work new type star-shaped poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s with functional hydrophobic calix[8]arene core were synthesized. Molecular-weight characteristics of obtained polymers, their thermosensitivity in aqueous solutions and complexing properties were studied. As part of the preparation of the PhD graduation work the field of research was expanded to the study of “structure – properties” relationships for star-shaped poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s with calix[n]arene core (n=4,8) based on chlorosulfonated calix[n]arene derivatives. The present study relates to the synthesis of star-shaped poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s with various positions of grafting of polyoxazoline arms from the calixarene core.
