Single chain self-assembly: preparation of alpha,omega-donor-acceptor chains via living radical polymerization and orthogonal conjugation.
Alpha,omega-hydrogen donor/acceptor functional polymer strands are prepared via a combination of living radical polymerization and orthogonal conjugation and subsequently self-assembled as single chains to emulate--on a simple level--the self-folding behaviour of natural biomacromolecules.
