Abstract

Cysteamine, which is an inexpensive and non-toxic aminothiol, was successfully employed as a photo-selective chain end transformation agent of iodo-terminated polymer chains (polymer-I). Polymer-I was selectively transformed to hydrogen-terminated (polymer-H) and thiol-terminated (polymer-SH) polymers with and without UV irradiation, respectively. This method is applicable to acrylate polymers. This photo-selective reaction offered a single-step preparation of patterned polymer brushes with SH and H chain end functionalities as a unique application.
