Summary
Functional polyesters, bearing lateral amino group, derived from racemic or optically active serine have been prepared by anionic polymerization of N-tritylated serine β-lactones. Polymers with molecular weights up to 30000 have been obtained. Removal of protective group leads to polyserine-ester.
