There is great current interest in the synthesis of well-defined and functional polymers using controlled radical polymerisation (CRP) techniques and the advances in these techniques have enabled access to a wide range of functional materials for a diverse range of applications. In particular over the last decade there has been significant interest in reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer polymerisation (RAFT), and macromolecular design via the interchange of ...
