Architectural Control in “Living” Free Radical Polymerizations: Preparation of Star and Graft Polymers

The use of multifunctional initiators such as 1 in a novel “living” free radical polymerization process allows the preparation of low polydispersity star and graft copolymers with accurate control over the molecular weight of each arm.
