Summary 2‐(Oct‐7‐en‐1‐yl)‐N‐mesylaziridine was used as a novel monomer for the anionic ring‐opening polymerization. This is the first functional aziridine‐derivative that can be polymerized via an anionic mechanism. Homo‐ and copolymers with (2‐n‐decyl‐N‐mesylaziridine) were synthesized and characterized via NMR spectroscopy and SEC. Molecular weight distributions were all monomodal and very narrow (Mw/Mn < 1.1). The pendant double bonds were functionalized with a protected cysteine derivative as a model for potential bioconjugation.
