Abstract

The chemistry of metathesis polymerization-derived monolithic supports is summarized. Since ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) triggered by well-defined transition metal alkylidenes is a living polymerization method, it allows for the controlled and highly reproducible synthesis of stationary phases in terms of both the nature and total content of the functional group(s) of interest. In addition, the high functionality tolerance of ROMP allows for creating monolithic supports with an unprecedented diversity in terms of functional groups that may be introduced. Applications in various areas of chemistry such as separation science heterogeneous catalysis and tissue engineering are summarized.
