More participants, yet efficient reactions : Multicomponent reactions (MCRs) have found application in polymer chemistry both in the synthesis of multifunctional monomers and in post‐polymerization modification. Examples include the Passerini three‐component reaction, the Ugi four‐component reaction, and the copper‐catalyzed MCR (see scheme).
