Halogen bonding (XB) has been used to catalyze organic reactions and polymerizations, which is an emerging research area. Reversible complexation mediated polymerization (RCMP) is an XB-catalyzed living radical polymerization and is one of the most promising examples of the XB catalysis. RCMP utiliz...
