Abstract

ABSTRACT Reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization has been known as a convenient method for the synthesis of polymers of designed molecular structures. Of particular interest are bifunctional or multifunctional chain-transfer agents (CTAs) which could be employed in the development of advanced materials via RAFT polymerization. In the present study, four bifunctional 2-(alkoxycarbonothioylthio) RAFT ...
