Glycopolymers via catalytic chain transfer polymerisation (CCTP), Huisgens cycloaddition and thiol-ene double click reactions.

CCTP has been used to give alkyne-functional macromonomers which are subsequently functionalised with sugar azides and thiols, using both CuAAC and thiol-ene Michael addition reactions, to yield end-functionalised glycopolymers in a convenient manner.
