“…Recently, there have been increasing efforts in the preparation of monodisperse, or uniform, sequence-defined polymers that has been one of the biggest challenges in polymer science. − Most of the reported methodologies for preparing uniform macromolecules with specific sequences rely on multistep iterative addition of corresponding monomer units one by one in desired orders. − A number of orthogonal and efficient organic reactions have been applied for constructing sequence-defined macromolecules, such as radical addition − and single unit monomer addition (SUMI), − multicomponent reactions, − Pd-catalyzed C–C coupling reactions, − Williamson etherification, ,− thiolactone chemistry, − triazine-based chemistry, , photo-ligation, ,, boronate chemistry, phosphoramidite chemistry, − and click reactions such as thiol-ene, ,,,− azide-alkyne, ,− Diels–Alder reaction, − and sulfur-fluoride exchange reaction, among others. These reactions furnish chain growth either in divergent style, such as unidirectional …”
