Abstract

Recently, synthetic polymers containing units of carbohydrate derivatives with pendatnt functional groups have been much studied. The polymers should be able to be used drug carriers and scaffold for tissue engineering, because of their nontoxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability.$\^$1-6/ During the last three decades, various polyfunctional polymers, e.g. polyhydroxypolyamides and polyesteramides, based on carbohydrates have been reported and synthesized by condensation polymerization between sugar derivative and diamines, although it could be done via complicated reaction routes going through protecting.$\^$1-6/ (omitted)
