Abstract: The suitability of a variety of newly prepared polymerizable a-amino acid derivatives for the preparation of template-imprinted polymers was investigated. The polymerizable binding sites were attached to the -amino acid template via azomethine, carboxylic ester or boronic ester linkages. Macroporous polymers containing these monomers were prepared. The extent to which the templates could be split off from the polymer, the degree of racemization of the a-amino acids during polymerization and cleavage as well as the degree of rebinding to the polymers were studied
