Olefin metathesis represents a comparably young area of chemistry. Originally strongly
related to Ziegler-Natta chemistry, its basic principles started to be elucidated as late as in …

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) involving 8-membered cyclic olefins, such
as the parent molecules cis-cyclooctene (COE) and cis, cis-1, 5-cyclooctadiene (COD) …

The success of metathesis chemistry techniques has sparked a tremendous interest in
polymer and material chemistry. This contribution provides an overview of the state of the art …

Because of its utility in network polymerization, dendrimer synthesis, and monomer
development, the photoinitiated addition of thiols to alkynes has rapidly become an …

Well-defined liquid crystal networks with controlled molecular weight between cross-links
and cross-link functionality were prepared by “click” cross-linking of telechelic polymers …

During the past 20 years or so, various conjugated polymers have been synthesised with
unusual electrical, magnetic, and optical properties owing to the substantial π‐electron …

We demonstrated that the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of 3-substituted
cyclooctenes bearing polar substituents allows the synthesis of highly regio-and stereo …

A commercial norbornyl‐functionalized linseed oil, blended with a bicyclic norbornene‐
based crosslinking agent (at loadings ranging from 0 to 50 wt%) undergoes ring‐opening …

This study details the enhancement of CO2 selectivity in ring-opening metathesis
polymerization (ROMP) polymers that contain nitrile moieties and micropore-generating …

Liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) have gained attention as materials with interesting
optical, mechanical and rheological properties. This review summarizes research on …
