Introduction. In the past decade, the development of controlled/living radical polymerizations (CRP) 1 allows the synthesis of (co) polymers not only with a predetermined degree of polymerization and narrow molecular weight distribution (low polydispersity, Mw/Mn) but also with high functionality and desired microstructure. One of the most efficient CRP methods is atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). 2-4 The polymers produced by ATRP preserve the terminal halogen atom (s) and can be successfully converted into various end groups through appropriate transformation, especially nucleophilic substitutions. 5 For instance, the substitution of a halogen atom from a polymer chain end by an azide anion is very efficient. 6 The obtained organic azido group can be used for a variety of chemical transformations to produce numerous types of end functional moieties, 5, 7-10 such as amino, hydroxy, or carboxy groups.One particular reaction of organic azides that has garnered increased attention is the 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides and terminal alkynes. 11 Two groups recently reported that with the use of a Cu (I) catalyst this coupling reaction results in the highly specific and efficient preparation of 1, 4-disubstituted 1, 2, 3-triazole products under moderate reaction conditions. 12, 13 These reactions can be conducted in aqueous or organic media, and little or no side reactions are observed. The practicality and versatility of the Cu (I)-catalyzed coupling reaction led to its inclusion in the class of efficient and specific organic reactions, commonly termed “click reactions”, as coined by Sharpless et al. 14 Click reactions have emerged as a powerful method to modify chainend and/or chain-side groups for functionalization of various (co) polymers. 15-17 Because of its utility for the preparation of functional telechelic polymers, ATRP, combined with the efficiency of click chemistry, is an interesting and promising strategy to synthesize various end-functionalized polymers. 18 Recently, several groups have reported the synthesis of functional (co) polymers via ATRP and subsequent click reactions. 19-21, 46 Notably, Lutz et al. described the preparation of monofunctional polymers by reacting various alkynes with azide-derivatized polymers prepared by ATRP. 20 The development and optimization of procedures for the synthesis of well-defined functional polymers is
