Solution-processable and functionalizable ultra-high molecular weight polymers via topochemical synthesis

Topochemical polymerization reactions produce ultra-high molecular weight crystalline polymers. Here the authors show a family of para-azaquinodimethane compounds that undergo facile visible light and thermally initiated polymerization in the solid state and the crystal structure has been resolved v...
