Biobased Cycloolefin Polymers: Carvone-Derived Cyclic Conjugated Diene with Reactive exo-Methylene Group for Regioselective and Stereospecific Living Cationic Polymerization

Carvone, a naturally abundant chiral cyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, was chemically transformed into cyclic exo-methylene conjugated dienes. The exo-methylene group had high reactivity in...
