Precise Synthesis of Poly(dimethylsiloxane) Copolymers through C–H Bond-Activated Macroinitiators via Yttrium-Mediated Group Transfer Polymerization and Ring-Opening Polymerization

This article reports on the generation of copolymers from a hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) block, which was used as a macroinitiator in the formation of poly(diethyl vinylphosphonate) (P...
