Rhodanine-based Knoevenagel reaction and ring-opening polymerization for efficiently constructing multicyclic polymers
Cyclic polymers have a number of unique physical properties compared to their linear counterparts but their synthesis is very limited. Here, the authors show a method to form a wide variety of multicyclic polymers by a rhodanine˗based Knoevenagel reaction and ring-opening polymerization.
