Popis: Analysis of photoproducts derived from 1-(arylmethyloxy) anthracene initiator 1 as well as polymer end groups demonstrated that the arylmethyloxyl radical and arylmethyl carbocation are involved in the initiation steps of St and CHO polymerization reactions, respectively. The ability of the radical and carbocation species to initiate polymerizations increased with the stability of these species.
