  1. Vinyl ketone polymers, including poly(phenyl vinyl ketone) and poly(p-chlorophenyl vinyl ketone) were successfully synthesized under light using atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). This marks the first successful attempt at ATRP of vinyl ketones. The polymerization kinetics revealed chain growth and maintained livingness, as further evidenced by successful chain extension using ethyl acrylate. The efficient main-chain cleavability of the polymers was confirmed under UV light. While the attainment of low dispersity remains an enduring challenge, this work offers promising potential for future success.
