organometallic-mediated radical polymerization

initialism: OMRP
https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.08920
Reversible-deactivation radical polymerization mediated by an organometallic reagent.
Notes:
  1. The term organometallic-meditated radical polymerization is not usually used in describing an atom-transfer radical polymerization process.
  2. The mechanism of organometallic-meditated radical polymerization may involve stable-radical-mediated polymerization (SRMP), degenerative chain-transfer radical polymerization (DTRP), atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) or some combination of these depending on the specific reagents and reaction conditions.
Example:
The best-known example of OMRP is cobalt-mediated radical polymerization, CMRP.
