Nitrile compounds are abundant, stable, cheap, and readily available natural chemical industrial sources. However, the efficient conversion of nitrile monomers to functional polymers is mostly limited due their inert reactivity, developing polymerizations based on under very mild conditions still a big challenge. In this work, facile powerful base-catalyzed acetonitrile-azide click polymerization was successfully established ambient conditions. This also enjoys merits short reaction time (15 min), 100% atom economy, transition-metal-free catalyst system, regioselectivity. A series poly(5-amino-1,2,3-triazole)s (PATAs) with high weight-average molecular weights (Mw, up 204,000) were produced in excellent yields (up 99%). The PATAs containing tetraphenylethene (TPE) moieties exhibit unique aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, which could be used sensitively detect Fe(III) ions low limit detection (1.205 × 10–7 M) specifically image lysosomes living cells. Notably, facilely post-modified primary amino groups polymer chains even through one-pot tandem reaction. Thus, work not only establishes new convert stable nitriles but generates versatile properties for diverse applications.
