Fluorinated homopolymers and block co-polymers via living ring-opening metathesis polymerisation
Abstract
A series of fluorinated homopolymers and block co-polymers has been synthesised using the four-coordinate molybdenum ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) initiators [Mo(CHR)(NAr)(OR′)2], where R = CMe2Ph, Ar = 2,6-C6H3-Pr2i and R′= CMe3 or CMe(CF3)2.
