Hi, don't have time now, but would be good to include reference to original paper: Chiefari J, Chong YK, Ercole F, Krstina J, Jeffery J, Le TPT, Mayadunne RTA, Meijs GF, Moad CL, Moad G, Rizzardo E, Thang SH MACROMOLECULES 31 (16): 5559-5562 AUG 11 1998

Done! It still needs a mechanism etc., though. Dflanagan 17:27, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

jetaxe No worries I added a mechanism i whipped up in chemdraw...

The Wikimedia Foundation information team has received a complaint from the originator of that scheme, specifically that it was copied without permission. Copyright is very important to Wikipedia, so I have removed the mechanism. Please be careful not to violate copyright when adding material to Wikipedia.

Perhaps a rather minor point I feel, but would it not be better to move this page to Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer and have this page a redirect there? I just feel that having the full name generally looks better on a page, rather than a first-line explanation of the abbreviation. The same would be true of ATRP_(chemistry), I'm sure there would be others but these are the two I've noticed so far. Mothball (talk) 12:33, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I somewhat agree. Is there a discussion page where such things can be determined. I think it would be best if the different methods were named after the common abbreviation, eg. RAFT-page is Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer. 77.212.171.42 (talk) 20:24, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Citing: "Using a multifuntional CTA can..." What is a CTA??? No link nor any wiki entry within chemistry on that. Unless its Cellulosetriacetate, which I would find strange. 77.212.171.42 (talk) 20:24, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
