Glucose based five arms atom transfer radical polymerization initiator was synthesized. This initiator was used to synthesize 5-arms star polymer of N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) through controlled radical polymerization. The ratio of reactants were kept as 1:1:2: 200 (initiator:Cu(I)Br:bpy:NVP). The rate of reaction with respect to NVP was found to be first order, and number-average molecular weight increases linearly with temperature up to 90 degrees C. The activation energy (E-a = 29.75 kJ mol(-1)) and enthalpy (Delta H-double dagger=26.73 kJ mol(-1)) were found to be in a good agreement with each other for activated complex, and negative value of entropy of activation (Delta S-double dagger = -219.12 J mol(-1) K-1) supports the highly ordered transition state.
