Effect of the Halide Counterion in the ROMP ofexo-Benzyl-[2-(3,5-dioxo-10-oxa-4-aza-tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]dec-8-en-4-yl)ethyl]dimethyl ammonium Bromide/Chloride

Combining ring-opening metathesis polymerization and thiol-ene coupling chemistries: facile access to novel functional linear and nonlinear macromolecules

The aim of this article is to highlight recent examples in which two powerful synthetic tools, namely ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and thiol-ene (including the thiol-Michael variant) click chemistry have been combined to facilitate the preparation of novel functional materials of varying topology.

ROMP (co)polymers with pendent alkyne side groups: post-polymerization modification employing thiol–yne and CuAAC coupling chemistries

The synthesis of a series of copolymers via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) containing pendent trimethylsilyl-protected alkyne functional groups is described.
