Cycloketyl radical mediated living polymerization

Abstract

The present article proposes a novel metal/odor/color-free strategy, called Cycloketyl Radical Mediated Living Polymerization (CMP). It is based on the use of the cyclo-compound 9,9′-bixanthene-9,9′-diol (BIXANDL), and proceeds similarly to Living Radical Polymerization (LRP) under mild thermal or photo stimuli. This technique shows significant potential for the practical large-scale production of industrial polymers.
