Popis: Anionic hydrogen‐transfer homopolymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) was carried out using t‐BuOK as an initiator in DMF under microwave irradiation. After 100 W of microwave was irradiated to the reaction mixture at 140°C for 6 h in the temperature control mode, corresponding polymer was obtained in 10% yield. In the case of conventional oil bath heating, by contrast, corresponding polymer was not obtained in similar anionic polymerization conditions. With 100 W and 2.45 GHz of microwave irradiation, formation of the polymer was obtained. Microwave‐assisted anionic hydrogen‐transfer copolymerization of NIPPAm and acrylamide (AAm) led to the formation of thermo‐sensitive copolymers whose thermo‐sensitivity was controlled by the NIPAAm/AAm unit ratio. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
