“…[10][11][12] In fact, their homopolymerizations have never been achieved except in the case of benzaldehyde (BzA) derivatives with special structures. 10,12,13 In contrast, polymers were obtained from both BzA and a simple derivative in copolymerizations with styrene (St) or isoprene. 10,11,14 However, no copolymers of BzA and its derivatives with vinyl ethers (VEs), which have high cationic polymerizability, have been obtained, 11 although carbocation from BzA derivatives were proven to initiate living polymerization of alkyl vinyl ethers.…”
