Living anionic polymerisation, and more recently ringopening metathesis polymerisation and ''controlled'' radical polymerisation, have played a key role in the development of BCP science.…”

This in-depth review covers progress in the area of polyferrocenylsilanes (PFS), a well-established, readily accessible class of main chain organosilicon metallopolymer consisting of alternating ferrocene and organosilane units. Soluble, high molar mass samples of these materials were first prepared in the early 1990s by ring-opening polymerisation (ROP) of silicon-bridged [1]ferrocenophanes (sila[1]ferrocenophanes). Thermal, transition metal-catalysed, and also two different living anionic ROP methodologies have been developed: the latter permit access to controlled polymer architectures, such as monodisperse PFS homopolymers and block copolymers. Depending on the substituents, PFS homopolymers can be amorphous or crystalline, and soluble in organic solvents or aqueous media. PFS materials have attracted widespread attention as high refractive index materials, electroactuated redox-active gels, fibres, films, and nanoporous membranes, as precursors to nanostructured magnetic ceramics, and as etch resists to plasmas and other radiation. PFS block copolymers form phase-separated iron-rich, redox-active and preceramic nanodomains in the solid state with applications in nanolithography, nanotemplating, and nanocatalysis. In selective solvents functional micelles with core-shell structures are formed. Block copolymers with a crystallisable PFS core-forming block were the first to be found to undergo "living crystallisation-driven self-assembly" in solution, a controlled method of assembling block copolymers into 1D or 2D structures that resembles a living covalent polymerisation, but on a longer length scale of 10 nm-10 μm.

“…[117] The design and synthesis of such materials is an interesting challenge for main group and macromolecular chemists. [118] Another class of phosphorus-containing polymers that are attracting increasing attention for a variety of potential applications are phospholecontaining oligo-and poly-thiophenes, e.g., 44. [119] These materials are being considered for possible uses in light-emitting diodes, photovoltaic cells, field-effect transistors, non-linear optical devices, and as polymeric sensors (see Section 5.4).…”

After a brief reflection on the important discoveries in main group chemistry during the past century, this article provides some suggestions concerning areas in which studies of s-and p-block element compounds are likely to have a major impact on the discipline of chemistry and upon society in general in the context of significant advances that have been made in the last decade. These areas range from fundamental to applied aspects of the subject. In the former category, novel aspects of chemical bonding and new reagents for synthetic applications are considered. From a more practical perspective alternative energy sources (especially hydrogen storage), new materials (notably nanomaterials and chemical sensors), catalysis (in the context of green chemistry), and medicinal chemistry (both diagnostic and therapeutic applications) are discussed.

“…In recent years however, there has been an increased demand for reactions that catalytically form phosphorus-element bonds in biology [6][7][8] and organic synthesis [9][10][11][12][13][14][15], with a particular eye on preparation of chiral phosphines for ligands [16]. There has also been a surge in the demand for phosphorus-containing materials with -conjugation [17][18][19][20][21]. These needs have prompted investigation of new catalytic methods to generate bonds to phosphorus.…”

This review presents developments in the young field of dehydrogenative coupling reactions of phosphines. Catalytic phosphorus-element bond formation via dehydrocoupling has rapidly expanded since the first discoveries in the mid 1990s. A survey of the available catalysts, P-P and P-E products, and mechanistic understanding is presented with emphasis on the emerging synthetic applications of this reaction.
