In this study, various main-chain/side-chain type alternating copolymers containing aromatic rings in the main chains were developed by controlled radical ring-opening polymerization for the purpose of precise synthesis of alternating copolymers consisting of a combination of specific functional groups and emergence of novel functions derived from the alternating arrangement. Alternating copolymers composed of conjugated/non-conjugated monomers were also synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) copolymerization of non-conjugated N-vinyl monomers. These results indicated the feasibility to develop functional alternating copolymers with alternating arrangement of specific functional groups, such as donor and acceptor.
