DOI: 10.1002/marc.202000645
Abstract: A methodology for synthesizing a wide range of dumbbell-shaped, graft and bottlebrush polymers with all-siloxane nature (without carbosilane linkers) is suggested. These macroarchitectures are synthesized from SiOH-containing compounds-silanol (Et3 SiOH) and siloxanol dendrons of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.macromol.1c02624
Abstract: Herein, we demonstrate that macromonomers consisting of organics-soluble, chemically protected oligonucleotides (protDNA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chains can be converted into bottlebrush polymers of distinct architectures via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). Using a custom norbornene-containing… read more here.
