Polymerization of ma and aa initiated by chlorocarbon/metallocene

摘要

Ferrocene (Cp_2Fe) along with halogenated compounds was introduced as both a photopolymerization promoter and a halide-radical trapping sponge. Recently, we first communicated the photopolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with the CCl_4/Cp_2M (M = Fe, Co, Ni) combination initiator, producing polar-substituent-containing polymers with CCU/Cl end groups. The end groups of those polymers can be converted to diverse functional groups by chemical modifications.
