Highlights • Transition-metal-catalyzed C H bond activation has attracted substantial interest in recent years as an efficient, step-economic, and environmentally benign pathway for the synthesis of functional polymers. • The polymerization reaction may proceed through C H/C X cross-coupling, oxidative C H/C H coupling, and C H addition to unsaturated C C bonds. • C H activation may also serve as a chain transfer reaction for olefin polymerization and polymer post-functionalization. This review summarizes recent advances in this area.
