Abstract

Various block (graft) copolymers have been prepared by combination of acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization of 9,9-dialkyl-2,7-divinyl-fluorene with Cu-catalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene using macroinitiators prepared by introduction of initiating functionalities into poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene-2,7-vinylene)s (PFVs) chain ends: a precise synthesis of the amphiphilic ABCBA-type block copolymers has also been attained by subsequent combination with click reaction after modification of the chain end with NaN₃.
