Since the first report of the ring‐opening metathesis polymerization of fluorinated monomers in 1979 considerable advances in precision and control of such syntheses have been achieved through the introduction of well defined initiators. It is now possible to carry out well controlled living and stereoregular polymerizations. The products of such syntheses can display unusually high relaxed dielectric constants, an observation which is crucial to the assignment of their tacticities and probably significant with regard to possible applications of this type of material.
