It has been found that diazomethane undergoes a facile 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition with both dithiobenzoate RAFT agents and the dithiobenzoate end‐groups of polymers formed by RAFT polymerization. Thus, 2‐cyanoprop‐2‐yl dithiobenzoate on treatment with diazomethane at room temperature provided a mixture of stereoisomeric 1,3‐dithiolanes in near quantitative (>95%) yield. A low‐molecular‐weight RAFT‐synthesized poly(methyl methacrylate) with dithiobenzoate end‐groups underwent similar reaction as indicated by immediate decolourization and a quantitative doubling of molecular weight. Higher‐molecular‐weight poly(methyl methacrylate)s were also rapidly decolourized by diazomethane and provided a product with a bimodal molecular weight distribution. Under similar conditions, the trithiocarbonate group does not react with diazomethane.

Amphiphilic random and diblock thermoresponsive oligo(ethylene glycol)-based (co)polymers were synthesized via photoiniferter polymerization under visible light using trithiocarbonate as a chain transfer agent. The effect of solvent, light intensity and wavelength on the rate of the process was investigated. It was shown that blue and green LED light could initiate RAFT polymerization of macromonomers without an exogenous initiator at room temperature, giving bottlebrush polymers with low dispersity at sufficiently high conversions achieved in 1–2 h. The pseudo-living mechanism of polymerization and high chain-end fidelity were confirmed by successful chain extension. Thermoresponsive properties of the copolymers in aqueous solutions were studied via turbidimetry and laser light scattering. Random copolymers of methoxy- and alkoxy oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylates of a specified length formed unimolecular micelles in water with a hydrophobic core consisting of a polymer backbone and alkyl groups and a hydrophilic oligo(ethylene glycol) shell. In contrast, the diblock copolymer formed huge multimolecular micelles.
