Silver-Mediated ARGET-ATRP of Reactive Acrylates Using TPMANMe2 Ligand: A Universal Strategy for Controlled Copolymerization

A controlled polymerization using activated acrylate monomers via ARGET-ATRP is developed with a tris[(4-dimethylamino pyridyl)methyl]amine ligand to address issues with weaker ligands and monomers that can undergo postpolymerization functionalization. This catalyst system enables the polymerization of
