Different AB2, A2B, and A2B2 type miktoarm Ru(II) complexed miktoarm star copolymers have been synthesized via Ru(II) triazolylpyridine (tapy) or Ru(II) bistriazolylpyridine (bitapy) complexation, using tapy-terminated polystrene (PS-tapy) or bitapy-terminated polystrene (PS-bitapy) as segment A, and tapy-terminated poly(hexyl isocyanate) (PHIC-tapy) or bitapy-terminated poly(hexyl isocyanate) (PHIC-bitapy) as segment B. The synthesis and characterization of these AB2, A2B, and A2B2 type miktoarm Ru(II) complexed miktoarm star copolymers were discussed. These Ru(II) complexed miktoarm star copolymers were investigated by SEC and 1H NMR, proving the formation of these designed structures.
