The developments of the living alkene polymerization method have achieved great progress and enabled the precise synthesis of important polyalkenes with controlled molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and architecture through an anionic, cationic or radical strategy. However, it is still challenging to develop a living alkene polymerization method through an all-in-one strategy where anionic and radical characteristics are merged into one polymerization species. Here, a versatile living polymerization method is reported by introducing a well-established all-in-one covalent-anionic-radical Barbier strategy into a living polymerization.
