Topochemical reactions, high-yielding solid-state reactions arising from the proximal alignment of reacting partners in the crystal lattice, do not require solvents, catalysts, and additives, are of high demand in the context of green processes and environmental safety. However, the bottleneck is the limited number of reactions that can be done in the crystal medium. We present the topochemical ene-azide cycloaddition (TEAC) reaction, wherein alkene and azide groups undergo lattice-controlled cycloaddition reaction giving triazoline in crystals. A designed monomer that arranges in a head-to-tail manner in its crystals pre-organizing the reacting groups of adjacent molecules in proximity undergoes spontaneous cycloaddition reaction in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal fashion, yielding the triazoline-linked polymer. A unique advantage of this reaction is that the triazoline can be converted to aziridine by simple heating, which we exploited for the otherwise challenging post-synthetic backbone modification of the polymer. This reaction may revolutionize the field of polymer science.
