Abstract

Abstract Scope and limitation of the vinyl ether polymerization initiated by NR4ClO4(KClO4;LiClO4)/CH3CHI‐OR was discussed. Besides isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE), N‐vinylcarbazole (NVC) and 2‐chloroethyl vinyl ether (CEVE) were initiated by NR4ClO4/CH3CHI‐OR. These polymerizations exhibited the characteristics of a living polymerization. However, in order to observe narrow molar mass distribution NVC was initiated with CH3CHI‐OR, without salts. Block copolymers were synthesized by the method of sequential monomer addition (NVC, IBVE, CEVE). The PCEVE segment was modified by nucleophilic substitution, which allowed the synthesis of amphiphilic block copolymers.
