In the last decades, metallopolymers have received great attention due to their various applications in the ? elds of materials and chemistry. In this article, a neutral 18-electron exo-substituted η4-cyclopentadiene CpCo(I) unit-containing polymer is prepared in a controlled/“living” fashion by combining facile click chemistry and ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). This Co(I)-containing polymer is further used as a heterogeneous macromolecular catalyst for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl methacrylate and styrene.
