Up to now, several strategies have been worked out to obtain "tailor-made" (meth)acrylic (co)polymers. The use of alkoxy alkoxides, discovered by Teyssi? et al. [1] playing the role of s-m ligands in classical anionic polymerisation, allows to reach at the same time: "living" high molecular weight polymers of alkyl (meth)acrylates at high temperature, their copolymerisation even with non-polar monomers at moderately low temperatures, the achievement of all of these reactions in hydrocarbon solvent while maintaining the same stereoselectivity as in polar media.
