This article covers precise syntheses of well‐defined chain‐end and in‐chain functionalized polymers, multi‐functionalized polymers with a definite number of functional groups, star‐branched and graft polymers by recently developed methodologies using specially designed 1,1‐diphenylethylene (DPE) derivatives. The DPE derivatives include various substituted DPE derivatives with functional groups and their derivatives, DPE‐functionalized DPE derivatives, and well‐defined DPE‐functionalized macromonomers. The synthetic utility and importance of these DPE derivatives are described via such polymer syntheses.
