Polymerization, Stimuli-induced Depolymerization, and Precipitation-driven Macrocyclization in a Nitroaldol Reaction System [PDF]
, 2022 Dynamic covalent polymers of different topology have been synthesized from an aromatic dialdehyde and α,ω-dinitroalkanes via the nitroaldol reaction. All dinitroalkanes yielded dynamers with the dialdehyde, where the length of the dinitroalkane chain ...
