Abstract

Summary: Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) of styrene was carried out at 110 °C using various substituted 2‐bromoisobutyrates as initiators and the homogeneous catalyst CuBr/1,1,4,7,10,10‐hexamethyltriethylenetetramine (HMTETA). Telechelic oligomers were obtained by coupling the bromo terminated polymers using Cu(0)/PMDETA catalyst at 90 °C. The products were characterized by ^1^H NMR and MALDI‐TOF and some unsaturated polymer chains were observed. They could originate from either disproportionation reaction or dehydrohalogenation of halogen terminated oligomers during MALDI analysis. Using this method, polymers with hydroxy, acid, or ester end groups were synthesized in a range of molecular weights from 1 000 to 13 000 g · mol^−1^. Coupling efficiency was between 79 and 100%, depending on the structure of the initiator.

## Abstract Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) is a robust method for the preparation of well‐defined (co)polymers. This process has also enabled the preparation of a wide range of polymer brushes where (co)polymers are covalently attached to either curved or flat surfaces. In this review,
