Cationic RAFT and DT polymerization

Mineto Uchiyama et al.

Summary: Since the first report of cationic reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization in 2015, significant progress has been made in various aspects of cationic RAFT and degenerative chain transfer (DT) polymerizations. This review focuses on the similarities and differences between cationic and radical RAFT polymerizations, discussing the characteristics and expanding potentials of cationic RAFT and DT polymerizations.

Catalyst-Free, Visible-Light-Induced Step-Growth Polymerization by a Photo-RAFT Single-Unit Monomer Insertion Reaction

Zhuang Li et al.

Summary: This study presents a catalyst-free, visible-light-induced step growth polymerization method using a photo-RAFT single-unit monomer insertion reaction. Through this reaction, a pendant cationic RAFT agent can be generated in each repeating unit of the polymer backbone. Both cationic and radical side chain extensions were successfully realized, providing a facile approach for the postpolymerization of step-growth polymers for the development of various functional polymeric materials.

Polymer Nanoparticles with Uniform Monomer Sequences for Sequence-Specific Peptide Recognition

Yusuke Saito et al.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis of nanoparticles with uniform monomer sequences for the recognition and neutralization of target peptides. A multifunctional oligomer with a precise monomer sequence was prepared and introduced into hydrogel nanoparticles, which cooperatively recognized the sequence of the target peptide and neutralized its toxicity. The study also investigated the effects of sequence, combination, density, and molecular weight distribution of precision oligomers on the affinity to the peptides.

Reversible-Addition Fragmentation Chain Transfer Step-Growth Polymerization

Joji Tanaka et al.

Summary: In this study, RAFT step-growth polymerization was achieved by combining RAFT and step-growth polymerization mechanisms, resulting in backbone repeat units with a pendant RAFT agent that can form molecular brush polymers in a second polymerization step. The cleavable backbone functionality allows the transformation of brushlike polymers into linear chains of uniform size under stimuli.
