A new dynamic C–Se bond-based addition–fragmentation chain transfer (AFCT) reaction of allyl selenides was performed under irradiation without any catalyst. ESR data and theoretical results indicated that the transfer reaction proceeded through a radical mechanism. This new dynamic bond holds great potential for application in smart polymer materials.
