Abstract:

Importance of catalysts and initiators as factors which control macromolecular structure of various polymers with inorganic backbone is discussed. Chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, stereoselectivity and supramolecular control in the synthesis of polysiloxanes, polysilanes and polyphosphazenes is described.
