For most ring-opening polymerizations, the driving force is ring strain and associated steric considerations rather than conversion of a multiple to a single bond.
“for most ROP the driving force is the ring strain and associated steric considerations.”

For the propagation step of D4 AROP, ΔHp is approximately 0 kJ mol-1, but due to increased rotational freedom of the side chains ΔSp is +6.7 J mol-1, so polymerization does occur.
“For the propagation step the Δ H p ≈ 0 kJ mol -1 , but due to the increased rotational freedom of the side chains the Δ S p = +6.7 J mol -1 polymerization does occur.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
