[en] The isoprene-assisted radical coupling (I-ARC) of polymers prepared by cobalt-mediated radical polymerization (see picture) is the first efficient radical coupling method that is not restricted to short chains. When applied to AB diblock copolymers, I-ARC constitutes a straightforward approach to the preparation of novel symmetrical ABA triblock copolymers
