    Abstract: Protease enzyme from Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus sp. Catalyzes the acylation of organic solvent-insoluble macromolecules in isooctane solution containing vinyl esters of fatty acids, lactones or lactides as acyl donors. The reaction occurs only when the enzyme is solubilized via ion-pairing with the anionic surfactant dioctylsulfosuccinate, sodium salt (AOT). Enzyme based acylation was demonstrated in macromolecules such as silk proteins. These macromolecules are reactive either as cryogenically milled powder suspended in the organic solvent or as a thin film deposited onto ZnSe slides. This selective acylation approach represents the first attempt at using enzymes to modify organic-insoluble macromolecules in nonaqueous media.

The (R).sub.n --Y group is preferably either ortho or para to X and more preferably is para to X. The polyaromatic compound may be a homopolymer consisting of one species of aromatic monomer of formula (I), a copolymer consisting of two or more species of aromatic monomers of formula (I), or a copolymer comprising one or more species of aromatic monomer of formula (I) and one or more species of an aromatic monomer not of formula (I). Preferably, the one or more aromatic monomers are reacted with a stoichiometric amount of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of horseradish peroxidase, the reaction taking place in water or in a mixture of water and one or more polar solvents. To obtain a substantial yield, the pH of the reaction medium is preferably around or below the pK.sub.a of the functional group of the monomer(s) being polymerized.

    Abstract: A method is described for a simple, fast and efficient synthesis of homopolymers and copolymers by the enzymatic ring opening polymerization of lactones and lactides. The enzyme used is an ion paired protease. The advantage of this enzymatic system is in using small amount of enzyme per monomer and lower reaction time. Homopolymers and copolymers are synthesized with molecular weights between 1000 and 4600 daltons, and dispersity as low as 1.1. The monomer conversion after 4 days, for reactions catalyzed by protease S, has reached 100%. Different initiators are used to control the rate and degree of polymerization. Synthesis of block copolymers with defined block size and crystallinity are described in this invention. These biodegradable and bioerodable polyesters and copolyesters with controlled molecular weight, dispersity and crystallinity have applications in medical, drug, cosmetic and food industries.
