Organoboronium-functionalized polystyrenes as a new class of polycations.
The facile preparation of organoboronium polymers via spontaneous reaction of bromoborylated polystyrene with 2,2'-bipyridine is reported; these novel polycations represent an interesting alternative to commonly used ammonium-based polycations.
