The present invention relates to modifiable linear polyunsaturated polymers and processes for preparing the same comprising reacting solely at least one bifunctional nucleophilic compound with at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer. The at least one bifunctional nucleophilic compound of the invention comprises two nucleophiles independently selected from the group consisting of C, N, O, S and Se. The at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer of the invention comprises two leaving groups L1 and L2, wherein at least one of the leaving groups L1 and L2 of the at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer is part of the nonaromatic unsaturated structure C═C—Cα-L. The double bond of said α-functional unsaturated monomer is maintained in the polyunsaturated polymer.
A process for preparing a modifiable linear polyunsaturated polymer comprising reacting solely at least one bifunctional nucleophilic compound with at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer,
A linear modifiable polyunsaturated polymer obtainable by a process comprising reacting solely at least one bifunctional nucleophilic compound with at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer, wherein said at least one bifunctional nucleophilic compound comprises two nucleophiles selected from the group consisting of C, N, O, S and Se, wherein the at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer comprises at least two leaving groups L1 and L2, and wherein at least one of the leaving groups L1 and L2 of the at least one α-functional unsaturated monomer is part of the nonaromatic structure C═C—Cα-L.
