Amphiphilic diblock copolymers, poly(ethylene
glycol)-block-poly(acrylate), bearing truxillic acid derivatives at the
junction point between the two blocks are described. The truxillic acid
junction can be selectively cut by UV light, leading to a disassembly of the
nano-objects made by self-assembly of the amphiphilic copolymers in water.
