| Description: |
N-substituted maleimides have become an indispensable tool for the synthesis of bioconjugates and functional materials. Herein, we present three strategies for the incorporation of N-alkyl substituted maleimides into RAFT agents and show that these maleimide-derived CTAs can be used to easily introduce a range of chemical functionality at the β-position of polymer chains, resulting in α,β,ω-functional RAFT polymers. With both functional maleimides and RAFT agents that are increasingly available on the market, the approach presented in this study could facilitate the synthesis of end-functional macromolecules and will complement well the range of existing synthetic routes, including those utilising N-substituted maleimides, to functional polymeric materials. |
