Abstract In this presentation, the metal-free atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) process mediated by visible light and catalyzed by new organic photocatalysts (PCs) is investigated. The new PCs, designed by diversifying N-aryl phenoxazine, are analyzed and evaluated for organocatalyzed ATRP (O-ATRP) experimentally and theoretically. The structure–property–performance relationships of PCs are investigated to determine the key parameters required for a good PC for use in O-ATRP. The scope of this process is explored in terms of monomer substrates, initiators, and solvents using our new PC. Finally, a well-defined amphiphilic block copolymer is prepared using this method to form micelles, providing a basis for future biomedical applications.
