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...

description 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 up to 11 blocks.
