The atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene has been studied using complexes of copper carboxylates. Compared with systems employing copper halides as the catalyst, the use of copper carboxylates resulted in faster polymerization rates and higher polydispersities. A ligand (dNbpy) to
