As the core of polymer chemistry, manufacture of functional polymers is one of research hotspots over the past several decades. Various polymers are developed for diverse applications due to their tunable structures and unique properties. However, traditional step-by-step preparation strategies inevitably involve some problems, such as separation, purification, and time-consuming. The multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are emerging as environmentally benign synthetic strategies to construct multifunctional polymers or composites with pendant groups and designed structures because of their features, such as efficient, fast, green, and atom economy. This mini review summarizes the latest advances about fabrication of multifunctional fluorescent polymers or adsorptive polymeric composites through different MCRs, including Kabachnik-Fields reaction, Biginelli reaction, mercaptoacetic acid locking imine reaction, Debus-Radziszewski reaction, and Mannich reaction. The potential applications of these polymeric composites in biomedical and environmental remediation are also highlighted. It is expected that this mini-review will promote the development preparation and applications of functional polymers through MCRs.
作为高分子化学的核心，功能聚合物的制备是过去几十年来的研究热点之一。由于其结构可调且具有独特性能，各种聚合物被开发用于不同的应用。然而，传统的逐步制备策略不可避免地存在一些问题，如分离、纯化以及耗时等。多组分反应（MCRs）作为环境友好型合成策略正在兴起，因其具有高效、快速、绿色和原子经济性等特点，可用于构建带有侧基和设计结构的多功能聚合物或复合材料。本综述总结了通过不同的多组分反应制备多功能荧光聚合物或吸附性聚合物复合材料的最新进展，包括卡巴契克-菲尔德反应、贝纳利反应、巯基乙酸锁定亚胺反应、德布斯-拉迪谢夫斯基反应和曼尼希反应。还强调了这些聚合物复合材料在生物医学和环境修复中的潜在应用。期望本综述将推动通过多组分反应制备功能聚合物及其应用的发展。
