Abstract
Cyclic oligomers may serve as starting materials for entropically-driven ring-opening polymerisations, as macrocyclic recognition systems and as building blocks for various novel structures. This has prompted the development of methods for synthesising cyclic oligomers. These include high-dilution methods, cyclo-depolymerisations and polymer-supported cyclo-oligomerisations. Recent progress in these areas is briefly reviewed and is illustrated with specific examples.
