Precision control of radical polymerization, or living radical polymerization, has been among
the most important and long-waited subjects in polymer chemistry and macromolecular …

Post‐polymerization modification is based on the direct polymerization or copolymerization
of monomers bearing chemoselective handles that are inert towards the polymerization …

The translation of small molecule chemistries into efficient methodologies for polymer
functionalization spans several decades, enabling critical advances in soft matter materials …

Polymers functionalized with azlactone (or oxazolone) functionality have become
increasingly useful for the rapid and modular design of functional materials. Because …

A diazo initiator and a chain transfer agent (CTA), both containing a pentafluorophenyl (PFP)
activated ester, were synthesized. In a RAFT polymerization using the functionalized chain …

At room temperature atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of N-vinylpyrrolidone
(NVP) was carried out using 5, 5, 7, 12, 12, 14-hexamethyl-1, 4, 8, 11-tetra-azacyclo …

Polymers with reactive side chains and narrow molecular weight distributions were
synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, and …

We explored surface-anchored poly (2-vinyl-4, 4-dimethyl azlactone)(PVDMA) brushes as
potential templates for protein immobilization. The brushes were grown using atom transfer …

Statistic and block copolymers exhibiting activated ester side groups were synthesized by
reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization in the presence of cumyl …

A new methacrylate monomer with a reactive ketone side chain, 2-(4-oxopentanoate) ethyl
methacrylate (PAEMA), was synthesized and subsequently polymerized by reversible …
