Abstract

A robust method for preparing controlled poly(vinyl ethers) utilizing commercially available reagents under visible light is reported. Pentacarbonylbromomanganese (Mn(CO)₅Br), generated from the conventional photolysis of manganese carbonyl and halide abstraction, is considered as a catalyst to oxidize carbon radical to carbenium ion in this polymerization. Polymerization behavior including the effects of solvents and monomers have been investigated.
