AbstractA mixture of sodium nitrite and ascorbic acid is able to control the radical polymerization of tert-butyl methacrylate (tBMA) in water at 80°C. Indeed, sodium nitrite is reduced by the ascorbic acid, and the nitric oxide (NO) which is formed insitu is nothing but a promoter of nitroxyl radicals. The radical polymerization of tBMA is thus basically controlled by a nitroxide-mediated process.

The thionolactone 3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-5H-benzo[e][1,4]dioxepine-5-thione (DBT) is shown to homopolymerize and, for the first time, copolymerize with styrene and methacrylates, introducing degradable thioester backbone functionality. The rapid copolymerization with styrene was exploited to produce copolymers through free-radical polymerization in a starve-fed semi-batch setup. The copolymerization of DBT with tert-butyl methacrylate under RAFT conditions was hypothesized to involve selective retardation of DBT-terminal chains that led to a more uniform distribution of degradable thioester linkages between chains. Surprisingly, the aminolysis of DBT homopolymers was accompanied by the intramolecular ether cleavage within the primary degradation product leading to the formation of 2,2-dimethylthiirane and salic-ylamides.
