CCTP features catalyst economy, well-controlling over both microstructure and architecture of the resulting polymers, and accessibility for novel(co)polymers. This review highlights the recent progresses made in the field of CCTP of dienes. After a brief introduction, the body of this review is divided into three parts:(1) principle of CCTP;(2) coordinative chain transfer homopolymerization of dienes;(3) coordinative chain transfer copolymerization of dienes.At the end, we present some challenges remaining in this area and our personal opinion regarding where this field should continue to develop. CCTP represents a novel strategy to prepare polydiene synthetic rubbers with controlled high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution, which has reached the practical industrial application level, demonstrating a great potential in industrialization.展开更多
