The ring-opening polymerization of a variety of cyclic and bicyclic monomers that were prepared via nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions mediated by the cyclopentadienyliron moiety was explored. The ability to design structurally different monomers using this approach, allowed for the isolation of polymeric materials with different chemical and physical properties. It has been well established that organoiron complexes containing an assortment of functionalities can be prepared using this methodology. A variety of asymmetric cyclic aryl ethers were prepared following reaction of diiron complexes with a dinucleophile. Following cleavage of the metal moieties, the aromatic macrocycles were converted to the corresponding insoluble polyaromatic ethers via ring-opening polymerization in the presence of an anionic initiator. The ring-opening metathesis polymerization of a series of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptenes was also investigated. Two classes of polynorbornenes containing cationic iron moieties within their side chains were synthesized u ing organoiron chemistry, and subsequently polymerized in the presence of ruthenium-based catalyst. The resulting organometallic polynorbornenes, with terminal or lateral side chains displayed excellent solubility and thermal stability.

Cyclic Polymers (Second Edition) reviews the many recent advances in this rapidly expanding subject since the publication of the first edition in 1986. The preparation, characterisation, properties and applications of a wide range of organic and inorganic cyclic oligomers and polymers are described in detail, together with many examples of catenanes and rotaxanes. The importance of large cyclics in biological chemistry and molecular biology is emphasised by a wide coverage of circular DNA, cyclic peptides and cyclic oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. Experimental techniques and theoretical aspects of cyclic polymers are included, as well as examples of their uses such as ring opening polymerisation reactions to give commercially important materials. This book covers a wide range of topics which should be of interest to many scientific research workers (for example, in polymer science, chemistry and molecular biology), as well as providing a reference text for undergraduate and graduate students.

Organometallic Polymers focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and potential applications of organometallic polymers. The discussion is organized around seven themes: vinyl polymerization of organometallic monomers; condensation polymerization of organometallic monomers; polymer-bound catalysts; applications of organotin polymers; developments in organosilicon polymers; phosphonitrile and sulfur nitride polymers; and coordination polymers. This book is comprised of 33 chapters and begins with a general review of polymerized vinyl monomers containing transition metals, as well as the reactivity of such monomers in addition to homo- and copolymerizations. The following chapters explore the participation of the ferrocene nucleus in the polymerization of vinylferrocene and its effect on polymer properties; thermomechanical transitions of ferrocene-containing polymers; photocrosslinkable organometallic polyesters; and supported catalysts for ethylene polymerization. The remaining sections discuss antifouling applications of various tin-containing organometallic polymers; structure and applications of polyphosphazenes and polymeric sulfur nitride; and coordination of inorganic ions to polymers. This monograph will be a useful resource for organic chemists and research workers in the field.
