For more than two decades, the Ihara research group has been focusing on the development of new methods for polymer syntheses using diazocarbonyl compounds as monomers. They found that diazoacetate ...

Obviously, the most common method for synthesizing polymers with a carbon-carbon main chain backbone is vinyl polymerization, by which many industrially important polymers, including common plastics ...

CPL-active polymeric materials are superior in terms of scalability, flexibility, 3D stacking ability, and film-forming properties. CPL can be produced directly using chiral luminescent materials, ...

Plastic materials can be found in practically every aspect of everyday life, including packaged foods, furniture, construction materials, vehicles, medical devices, and personal garments (to name a ...

This illustration shows the C1 polymer formation, where the Pd-catalyst (red spere) is linearly combining a number of diazoacetate monomers (transparent sphere) to form the polymer main chain. For ...
