A di-bromo ATRP initiator(Br-ini-Br) containing cyclopropenone-masked dibenzocyclooctyne group was used to prepare the linear PS with a cyclopropenone-masked dibenzocyclooctyne in the middle of the chain and bromo groups at both ends(Br-PS-Br). Then we used the single electron transfer-nitroxide radical coupling(SET-NRC) reaction to transfer the bromo end groups to azide groups(N_3-PS-N_3). After UV irradiation, the dibenzocyclooctyne group was quantitatively released, and intramolecularly reacted with alternative azide end group to produce the tadpole-shaped PS based on SPAAC reaction.展开更多
