Sulfenate anions as organocatalysts for benzylic chloromethyl coupling polymerization via C=C bond formation
Polymerization reactions are often catalysed by metal compounds and hence there are concerns surrounding toxicity, cost and environmental friendliness. Here the authors show sulfenate anions as organocatalysts for benzylic chloromethyl-coupling polymerization reactions to form poly(stilbene)s.
