General description

TEMPO methacrylate (4-Methacryloyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) undergoes anionic dispersion polymerization to afford nanometer-sized polymer particles bearing 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) radicals.

Application

Stable nitroxide radical useful in controlling living radical polymerizations, with a methacrylate functionality for cross-linking or orthogonal polymerization.
TEMPO methacrylate (4-Methacryloyloxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) may be employed as counter radical for polymerization of styrene.
