Question

Consider each of the following monomers and predict if it would likely undergo radical, anionic, or cationic addition polymerisation. Then, in the space provided below, draw the electron pushing mechanism for the initiation and the first propagation steps of the monomer that you chose for each (the catalyst is provided for you). Then draw what the growing polymer chain looks like and briefly indicate why you chose that monomer to undergo the selected type of polymerisation (hint: consider concepts such as electron donating group, electron withdrawing group, resonance, and hyperconjugation!)
