Cyclic polymers are an intriguing class of macromolecules. Because of the constraints of the
cyclic topology and the absence of chain ends, the properties of these molecules differ from …

Polymers have become one of the largest and most important materials we use in daily life.
Their popularity has stemmed from their wide range of material properties combined with …

A strategy is reported for controlling the architecture of poly (disulfide) s by ring-opening
polymerization. Aryl thiol initiators shift the ring–chain equilibrium to yield cyclic polymers …

Reported is the catalytic cyclic polymer synthesis by a 3d transition metal complex: a V (V)
alkylidyne,[(dBDI) V≡ C t Bu (OEt2)](1–OEt 2), supported by the deprotonated β …

Cyclic polymers have different physical properties compared to their linear counterparts of
the same molecular weight. These different properties could have potential impact in the …

Cyclic polymers have dramatically different physical properties compared with those of their
equivalent linear counterparts. However, the exploration of cyclic polymers is limited …

Organocatalysis has emerged as an invaluable tool for polymer synthesis and has already
demonstrated versatility for replacing organometallic catalysts in many polymerization …

Recent progress observed in Topological Polymer Chemistry is outlined with particular
emphasis on single-cyclic (ring) and multi-cyclic polymers having programmed chemical …

This review provides an overview of smart chemistry developed and utilized in the last 5–10
years in polymer-based drug delivery nanomedicine. Smart chemistry not only facilitates the …
