One-step synthesis of alkoxyamines for nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization.
An alkoxyamine that is an effective initiator for the controlled polymerization of styrene and isoprene has been prepared by the reaction of 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane with two equivalents of radicals derived from 1-bromoethylbenzene.
