Smart polymers remain a compelling focus for researchers and industries due to their remarkable efficiency, adaptability, specificity. These dynamic systems can react external stimuli by altering physicochemical properties, holding immense potential new wave of intelligent applications. The strategic functionalization stimuli-responsive unlocks ways novel smart properties. An illustrative example is the integration organometallic complexes, offering exciting prospects augmenting heterogeneous catalysis achieving precise control over drug release. It's crucial acknowledge that current state while promising, constrained intricate multifaceted procedures. In this pursuit, we propose approach: functionalizing catechol groups within polymeric chains N-isopropylacrylamide using high concentrations bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) dichloride, unprecedented levels attachment (4.05 mol %). Our findings, validated through 1H NMR analysis, confirm successful complexes shedding light on underlying reaction mechanisms. Moreover, these materials exhibit intriguing changes in cloud points, which are directly influenced presence compounds, resulting differences 10 °C samples with highest contents. This research underscores tailored polymer strategies advancing diverse technological
