Oxygen-Tolerant, Controlled Synthesis of Degradable and Water-Soluble Poly(Vinyl Amide)s via Radical Ring-Opening Copolymerization of Cyclic Dithiothreitol.
Radical ring-opening polymerization (rROP) has emerged as a powerful strategy for introducing degradable linkages into vinyl polymer backbones. In this study, we report an oxygen-tolerant photoinduced electron/energy transfer reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization approach for the sy...
