Macromolecular functionalization and linking are often facilitated by using ‘click’ chemistries. Now, triazolinediones have been used in ultrafast click reactions under additive-free, ambient conditions for polymer conjugation. Clicking to indoles gives an adduct that is dynamic at elevated temperatures, which produces properties such as polymer-network healing, reshaping and recycling.
