Controlled Radical Polymerization toward Ultra-High Molecular Weight by Rationally Designed Borane Radical Initiators

Summary: Ultra-high-molecular-weight (UHMW) polymers can display outstanding properties; however, it is challenging to synthesize UHMW polymers by using external free radical initiators. To address this, here, we report the ration design and adoption of B-alkylcatecholborane (RBCat) as a radical ini...
