This review provides a comprehensive summary of organoboron-mediated free radical polymerization, Lewis pair polymerization, ionic polymerization, and polyhomologation, laying the groundwork for further establishment of polymerization methods.
The number and position of sulfur atoms in cyclic (thio)carbonate monomers from D-glucal are varied, and their influence on polymerisability, polymer sequence and thermal properties is discussed.
This review focuses on advances in bioplastics built on a D-xylose core, and points the way for their current challenges and future opportunities.
This review discusses the impact of borane catalysis on epoxide homo- and copolymerization, focussing on polymerization mechanisms and catalyst design.
This review highlights routes for the synthesis of both five- and six-membered cyclic thiocarbonates and presents examples of their reactivities/applications.
