Transformation reactions involving metathesis polymerisation

Transformation reactions provide a facile route to synthesise block copolymers that cannot be made from a single polymerisation mode. A variety of transformation reactions involving free radical, cationic, anionic, group transfer, Ziegler-Natta and metathesis are known. In this article, transformation reaction involving metathesis polymerisation is reviewed. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
