Abstract
The homopolymerization of comonomer charge-transfer complexes results in the formation of equimolar, alternating copolymers. The formation of homopolymers and non-equimolar compositions has been attributed to the copolymerization of comonomer complexes with uncomplexed monomers or the dissociation of the comonomer complex followed by initiation of conventional radical or cationic copolymerization. Mechanisms are proposed which account for the formation of non-stoichiometric compositions from comonomer charge-transfer complexes without violating the postulate that comonomer complexes do not copolymerize with uncomplexed monomers nor per se initiate radical or ionic homopolymerization or copolymerization.
