A new synthetic route to in-chain metallopolymers via copper(i) catalyzed azide–platinum–acetylide iClick†
Abstract
The first example of an in-chain metallo-poly(triazolate) synthesized by CuAAC is reported. Azido–platinum–acetylide (A–M–B) monomers are catalytically polymerized with copper(I) acetate to yield 1,2,3-triazolate linked Pt(II) units. The metallopolymers are characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, UV/Vis, GPC, and MS.
