Abstract Photomediated reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) step‐growth polymerization is performed using a trithiocarbonate‐based chain transfer agent (CTA) and acrylate‐based monomers both with and without a photocatalyst. The versatility of photo‐mediated RAFT step‐growth is demonstrated by one‐pot synthesis of a graft copolymer via sequential monomer addition. Furthermore, oxygen‐tolerant photo‐mediated RAFT step‐growth is demonstrated, facilitated by the appropriate selection of photocatalyst and solvent pair (zinc tetraphenyl porphyrin [ZnTPP] and dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO]), enabling ultralow volume polymerization under open‐air conditions.more » « lessFree, publicly-accessible full text available January 1, 2026
