“…[41,42] Carbonates bearing reactive functionalities such as aryl, allyl, halide, and azide moieties provide a route for modification of a material's properties postpolymerization. [43][44][45][46] Whilst the number of pendent functionalities compatible with ROP is not limited to the relatively simple functionalities listed above, [47,48] postpolymerization modification of materials bearing even these simple functionalities can be employed to produce materials bearing a much wider range of functional groups. As a small selection of potential modifications, benzyl-functional polymers may be deprotected by hydrogenolysis to yield alcohol and carboxylic acid functional groups (which may then be further modified themselves, e.g., by esterification), [49][50][51] pendent halide functionalities may undergo reaction with nucleophiles, [46,52,53] alkene groups can be modified to provide a wide range of additional Macromol.…”
