One-pot synthesis of methacrylic and acrylic polymers from benzylic alcohols (R-OH) used as initiating moieties was developed. R-OH was converted to alkyl iodide (R-I), and the generated R-I was used as an initiator without purification or isolation in the subsequent reversible complexation mediated...
