Although minimalist models for patchy attractive particles have revealed powerful design rules for how particle valence directs colloidal assembly, less work has focused on comparably simple models of reversible, network-forming star polymers. Here, we use relative-entropy coarse-graining and simulation results from finer-resolution bead--spring star polymers to generate 5-bead models of dynamic, end-associating four-armed poly(ethylene glycol) macromers. Our results comparing structural correlations, network connectivity, and phase behavior of the coarse- and fine-grained models provide insight into how the accuracy and transferability of the coarse-grained models depend on the state point chosen for coarse-graining. The results also reveal intrinsic trade-offs between reducing degrees of freedom and expanding the range of effective interactions in coarse-graining that impact the total number of pairwise interactions in the resulting model, with implications for its computational efficiency.
