An atom-efficient conjugation approach to well-defined block copolymers using RAFT chemistry and hetero Diels–Alder cycloaddition

Abstract

The tendency of electron-deficient dithioesters to undergo hetero Diels–Alder cycloadditions is successfully used to generate polymer conjugates between a RAFT-polymerized poly(styrene) and a diene-terminated poly(ε-caprolactone).
