title: Amphicatalytic polymerization: synthesis of stereomultiblock poly(methyl methacrylate) with diastereospecific ion pairs.
abstract: Diastereospecific ion pairs consisting of isospecific transition-metal cations and syndiospecific main-group anions promote what is termed amphicatalytic polymerization of MMA, producing PMMA with isotactic-b-syndiotactic stereomultiblock microstructures.
