Olefin metathesis polymerization has commanded great attention
as a versatile method for preparing macromolecular materials
with advanced architectures and functions in academia and industry.
This Account summarizes our endeavors directed towards the preparation
of various functional polymers by using olefin metathesis polymerization
strategies in particular acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization
and ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), during
the last ten years. In addition, the merits and limitations of ADMET polymerization
and ROMP techniques are also demonstrated and compared.
Notably, this Account highlights our recently developed sequence-
controlled ROMP strategy for production of precision polymers
in a regio-/stereoselective manner, the rollercoaster journey for the
evolution of a macrobicyclic olefin system containing a sacrificial silyloxide
bridge is described in detail.
