Synthesis of poly-L-glutamates containing 5-substituted uracil moieties

The polymer reaction of cyclic derivatives of uracil and 5-bromouracil with polyacrylic and polymethacrylic acids, and poly-L-glutamic acid was studied in dimethylformamide solution. A similar reaction of cyclic derivatives of uridine with the polymeric acids was also made. Alkaline hydrolysis was further carried out on the polymers obtained.
