Excited to announce our latest research on introducing β-triketones and diketoenamine chemistry into vinyl polymers! J. Am. Chem. Soc. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Huge Thanks to Kevin Stewart, Debabrata Konar, Brent Sumerlin, Sumerlin Research Group for their contributions!

Huey Lewis said it best: It's hip to be square. Great work led by Debabrata Konar showcasing how primary chain squaramide units can be leveraged to form supramolecular polymer networks through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Brent Sumerlin ACS Macro Letters pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Hip new paper out in ACS Macro Journals simply titled "Polysquaramides." Debabrata Konar and friends cooked up some supramolecularly crosslinked polysquaramide networks, exploring some new and unique materials!
