In traditional atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), oxygen must be meticulously eliminated due to its propensity quench species and halt the process. Additionally, oxidizes lower-valent Cu catalyst, compromising ability activate alkyl halides propagate polymerization. this study, we present an oxygen-driven ATRP utilizing alkylborane compounds, a method that not only circumvents need for stringent removal but also exploits as essential cofactor promote This approach exhibits broad compatibility in organic or aqueous media, yielding well-defined polymers with low dispersity (Đ 1.11) molecular weights closely aligned theoretical values. Triethylborane (Et3B) air-stable triethylborane-amine complex (Et3B-DMAP) facilitate controlled under open-to-air conditions, demonstrating efficiency across wide range of monomers. Moreover, technique enables successful synthesis protein–polymer conjugates supports surface modifications nanoparticles silicon wafers aerobic conditions. represents robust versatile platform precision far-reaching implications materials science, biomedicine, advanced engineering.

Synthetic polymer chemistry endeavors to imitate the spatial and temporal control exhibited within biological systems obtain well-defined polymeric materials with unique structures, properties, applications. This is often approached through development of dynamic catalyst (or initiator) that use external stimuli elicit discrete, site-specific transformations impact polymerization. Herein we highlight developments in polymerizations are modulated by stimuli, particular focus on those enable notable changes kinetics, monomer selectivity, architecture, or tacticity. Examples include chemical oxidants reductants, light, applied voltage, mechanical force.

We report a novel photoiniferter approach toward enabling chemoselective fragmentation of reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization using two different RAFT agents. Methyl methacrylate (MMA) was polymerized in the presence agents, 4-cyano-4-[(dodecylsulfanylthiocarbonyl)sulfanyl]pentanoic acid (CDTPA) and 2-(dodecylthiocarbonothioylthio)propionic (DTPA). Both agents contain same Z-groups but R-leaving groups. Under conditions, only one agent preferentially fragmented while other remained inert. This led to synthesis poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with close correlations between theoretical experimental molecular weights narrow weight distributions (Mw/Mn). then employed homopolymerize copolymerize inimer, 2-(2-(n-butyltrithiocarbonate)propionate)ethyl (BTPEMA), under green light CDTPA trithiocarbonate functionality on inimer incapacitated for transfer. Switching blue irradiation allowed photolysis BTPEMA grafting second monomer. provided facile route complex macromolecular architectures such as comblike bottlebrush polymers without need intermediate steps, postmodification.
