Popis: New water-soluble poly(ether-amide)s (PEA)s were synthesised by polycondensation of diethyl L-tartrate and commercial polyethers having isopropylamino end-groups (Jeffamine ED-600 or Jeffamine ED-900). PEAs were derivatised with the synthetic auxin 1-naphthylacetic acid (NAA). It was shown that PEA and their esters with NAA (PEA-NAA) form interpolymer complexes with polyacids and that the complex formation is favoured by the hydrophobic NAA-residues in PEA-NAA. The hydrolysis of PEA-NAA was found to proceed mainly by cleavage of the ester bonds linking the pendant NAA-residues. The poly(ether-amide) main chain was found to be more stable than the similar poly(ether-ester) chain of poly[oxytartaroyloxypoly(oxyethylene)].
