Title: Synthesis of Multivalent Organotellurium Chain-Transfer Agents by Post-modification and Their Applications in Living Radical Polymerization. Author: Fan W, Nakamura Y, Yamago S. Journal: Chemistry; 2016 Nov 14; 22(47):17006-17010. PubMed ID: 27734536. Abstract: Functionalized or multivalent organotellurium chain-transfer agents (CTAs) for living radical polymerization were synthesized by post-modification, which involved the condensation between a carboxylic-acid-functionalized CTA and various amines in excellent yields without affecting the reactive tellurium moiety. The CTAs exhibited high synthetic versatility for radical polymerization and gave structurally well-controlled polymers, such as multiarmed polymers, from various monomers. Because all new CTAs are easily available on a large scale by simple purification, the current method significantly facilitates macromolecular engineering based on organotellurium-mediated radical polymerization (TERP).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
