Abstract
The creation of polymers with a high degree of sequence and/or stereocontrol represents an exciting frontier in materials science. In order to obtain alternating polymers, coordination polymerization using well-defined metal complexes has played a leading role in the last two decades. In the following paper, we will describe selected published efforts to achieve these research goals using discrete, structurally well-characterized metal complexes.
