✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Photo‐oxidation of bis(3,5‐dimethylphenyl) disulfide proceeds in the presence of aromatic nitriles as sensitizers. Catalytic amounts of 9,10‐dicyanoanthracene act as an electron mediator of the transfer from the disulfide to oxygen in the presence of biphenyl as a co‐sensitizer. The photo‐redox system enabled an efficient formation of poly(thio‐2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene) through electrophilic reaction of the sulfonium cation produced in the photo‐oxidation.

## Abstract **Summary:** The effect of structural factors on polymer formation versus cyclization is reported. The reaction of sodium sulfide with either 1,4‐dibromobut‐2‐ene **1** or 1,4‐dibromobutane **2** has been carried out in presence of a phase transfer catalyst and it was observed that the
Al~tract--The polymerization of 2-methylpropene initiated by the mixture Lewis acid-2-azido-2,4,4trimethylpentane was studied in various conditions. It was shown that BF3 gave an appreciable polymerization yield, while diethylaluminium chloride gave only low yields. The functionalization of poly(2-m
## Abstract The synthesis of nanosized poly(methyl methacrylate) initiated by 2,2′‐azoisobutyronitrile via differential microemulsion polymerization has been investigated. Poly(methyl methacrylate) with a molecular weight of around 1 × 10^6^ and a particle size of about 20 nm was achieved under mil
