The Diels–Alder (DA) reaction is regarded as quite a useful strategy in organic and
macromolecular syntheses. The reversibility of this reaction and the advent of self-repair …

Click chemistry is one of the most powerful strategies for constructing polymeric soft
materials with precise control over architecture and functionality. In this review, we provide a …

In the two decades since the introduction of the “click chemistry” concept, the toolbox of “click
reactions” has continually expanded, enabling chemists, materials scientists, and biologists …

Cyclopentadiene is one of the most reactive dienes in normal electron-demand Diels–Alder
reactions. The high reactivities and yields of cyclopentadiene cycloadditions make them …

Self‐immolative polymers (SIPs) are a class of degradable macromolecules that undergo
stimuli‐triggered head‐to‐tail depolymerization. However, a general approach to readily …

The first total synthesis of (+)-pedrolide, a tigliane-derived diterpenoid featuring an
unprecedented 5–5–6–6–3 carbon skeleton, is reported. Key to the approach is the …

We report a visible light-responsive bilayer actuator driven by the photothermal properties of
a unique molecular photoswitch: donor–acceptor Stenhouse adduct (DASA). We …

The growing impact of polymers in modern-day applications necessitates the development
of novel polymeric materials with versatile properties derived from readily available …

Molecular bottlebrush (MBB) refer to a synthetic macromolecule, in which a mass of
polymeric side chains (SCs) are covalently connected to a macromolecular backbone …

A highly efficient metal-free grafting-onto strategy based on the cyclopentadiene (Cp)–
maleimide click reaction was developed for the preparation of molecular bottlebrushes …
