Being an essential component of organic chemistry, named reactions are indispensable in organic synthesis. More and more named reactions have been devised to create unique polymer backbones, which has significantly accelerated the creation of new polymer materials. Yet, the university chemical knowledge system is deficient in relevant introductions. The purpose of this study is to incorporate the specified reactions within the teaching of polymer chemistry. These reactions are divided into six categories: transition metal-catalyzed coupling reactions, condensation reactions, pericyclic reactions, multi-component reactions, free radical reactions, and other reactions. This work methodically covers these six types of reactions, which are critical for polymer backbone synthesis, and presents the practice in teaching. It can assist students to learn polymer chemistry in conjunction with organic chemistry and provide some reference for students and teachers.
