Abstract:It remains challenging to synthesize all‐(meth)acrylic triblock thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), due to the drastically different reactivities between the acrylates and methacrylates and inevitable occurrence of side reactions during polymerization of acrylates. By taking advantage of the easy structural modulation features of N‐heterocyclic olefins (NHOs), we design and synthesize strong nucleophilic tetraphenylethylene‐based NHOs varying in the number (i.e. mono‐, dual‐ and tetra‐) of initiating functional g… Show more
