The reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) copolymerization of styrene and 4-vinylbenzyl dithiobenzoate, a RAFT-based inimer (initiatormonomer), is described. Controlled polymerization was achieved in bulk conditions using thermal initiation at 110 degrees C to give arborescent polystyrene (arbPSt). The number-average molecular weights of the polymers increased linearly with conversion and were much higher than theoretically calculated for a linear polymerization, reaching M-n = 364,000 g/mol with M-w/M-n = 2.65. Branching analysis by NMR showed an average of 3.5 branches per chain. SEC data, which were similar to those measured in arborescent polyisobutylene, supported the architectural analysis.
