We report the controlled polymerization of styrene using zerovalent copper and conventional ATRP ligands as catalysts at 90 degrees C in toluene. Commercially available PMDETA was found to provide the best control, with good agreement between measured and theoretical molecular weight and a polydispersity of 1.24. This could be reduced to 1.17 by addition of a small amount of Cu(II)Br-2.
