Abstract:Polymers possessing saturated fused polycycles in the main chain repeating unit have been underexplored despite their potential utility based on their expected properties such as high rigidity, chemical resistance, transparency, and thermal stability. In this regard, herein, we developed a radical stitching polymerization of styryl vinyl ketones for the synthesis of polyketones possessing saturated fused bicyclic repeating units. The polymerization proceeded smoothly with a high degree of stitching efficiency … Show more
