Professor Andrew B. Lowe holds B.Sc. (Hons) (1993), D.Phil. (1998), and D.Sc. (2009) degrees in Chemistry and Polymer Science from the University of Sussex, UK. After 10 years at the University of Southern Mississippi, first as a postdoctoral researcher and then as an Assistant and Associate Professor of Polymer Science and Engineering he moved, in May 2009, to the Centre for Advanced Macromolecular Design (CAMD) at the University of New South Wales, Australia, where he is currently a Professor of Macromolecular Science and Engineering. He has published approximately 90 papers, books, book chapters, encyclopedia articles, and abstracts. Professor Lowe’s current research interests broadly cover water-soluble and ‘smart’ copolymers, reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer, ring-opening metathesis polymerization, and applications of thiol-based reactions in polymer synthesis and modification. |
M. Alyse Harvison holds a B.Sc. degree (highest honours, 2008) in Chemistry from the University of Southern Mississippi, USA. During her undergraduate studies she was a recipient of the highly prestigious Coca-Cola National and Northrop Grumman Scholarships. In the fall of 2008 she joined the Ph.D. program in Polymer Science & Engineering at the University of Southern Mississippi, moving in August 2009 to continue her Ph.D. studies with Professor Lowe in CAMD where she is currently exploring the application of thiol-based chemistries as a means of selectively functionalizing and synthesizing novel (co)polymers. |

Abstract
A series of thiol-based ‘click’ reactions is discussed with an emphasis on highlighting the individual chemistries and noting recent literature examples. This is not an exhaustive review but rather serves to demonstrate the versatility and clear potential of thiol-based chemistry in polymer/materials design, synthesis, and modification.
