One-step synthesis of sequence-controlled multiblock polymers with up to 11 segments from monomer mixture

Switchable polymerization holds considerable potential for the synthesis of highly sequence-controlled multiblock. Here the authors show a self-switchable polymerization enabled by simple alkali metal carboxylate catalysts that directly polymerize six component mixtures into polymers consisting of u...
