Alkenylboronate units were introduced into poly(methyl methacrylate) as trigger sites for backbone degradation. The degradation was triggered through the complexation of a fluoride anion to the boron pendant and subsequent activation by a manganese salt, resulting in the generation of a main-chain carbon radical and β-scission in an adjacent methacrylate unit. The addition of catechol was required, and chelate coordination to the Mn center was crucial for the degradation.
