Template-controlled oligomerization. The search for bimolecular termination

摘要: Bimolecular termination was probed in benzene and methyl isobutyrate using exogenous terminator a previously described template system effective controlling oligoselectivity the free-radical-mediated polymerization of methacrylate. As expected, increasing amounts added led to decrease intramolecular (cyclization). However, differences reactivity profiles with different terminators two solvents are consistent intervention solvent-enforced control chain-template dynamics
