P=C bonds mimic C=C bonds in the radical-initiated copolymerization of a phosphaalkene 1 and styrene (see scheme). The resulting copolymers 2 have unprecedented phosphine-containing backbones with phosphorus compositions that vary depending on the monomer ratios. These novel functional hybrid inorganic-organic macromolecules are used as polymeric supports for the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling. VAZO = 1,1′-azobis(cyclohexanecarbonitrile).
