title: Biologically synthesized or bioinspired process-derived iron oxides as catalysts for living cationic polymerization of a vinyl ether.
abstract: Fe(3)O(4) synthesized by magnetotactic bacteria and α-Fe(2)O(3) synthesized via a microbial-mineralization-inspired process functioned as catalysts for the controlled cationic polymerization of a vinyl ether.
