Although ring opening metathesis polymerization was known since the 60's, the first living ROMP systems required to discovery of well defined metathesis initiators In the mid 80's. Since that time many ROMP catalysts have been discovered that will Initiate living polymerization. These systems have opened the way to the synthesis of a wide array of well devined polymer systems.
