Phase separation approach to a reactive polycarbonate monolith for “click” modifications

A polycarbonate monolith that carries allyl side groups was fabricated by a simple phase separation technique. With the porous network structure largely maintained, the monolith could be modified by using the thiol-ene click chemistry and olefin metathesis, which qualifies the present monolith as a versatile platform for a wide range of functional monoliths.
