Design of biomaterials through direct ring-opening metathesis polymerisation of functionalised cyclic alkenes
Shingo Kobayashi, Masaru Tanaka
Abstract
Ring-opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) has become a popular method for synthesising complex functional polymers owing to the high functional group tolerance of metathesis catalysts.
