The most fundamental aspects of single-electron transfer (SET) principles are presented. They are discussed according to different definitions used by expert practitioners and are applied to SET living radical polymerization (SET-LRP) according to the definition of the division of organic chemistry of IUPAC that relies on principles elaborated by Taube, Eberson, Chanon, and Kochi. Additional definitions are also discussed to help clarify for the nonexpert contradictory literature reports. Subsequently, the principles and evolution of SET-LRP together with the methodologies currently available to practice it are discussed. It is expected that this Perspective will be able to help experts and nonexperts practice, develop, and invent new concepts and methodologies for SET-LRP to advance its status and the status of other living radical polymerization methods to the level of the most precise living polymerization methods.

单电子转移活性自由基聚合平台，用于实践，开发和发明

介绍了单电子转移（SET）原理的最基本方面。根据专家的不同定义对它们进行讨论，并根据IUPAC有机化学分工的定义（其基于Taube，Eberson，Chanon和Kochi阐述的原理）将其应用于SET活性自由基聚合（SET-LRP）。 。还讨论了其他定义，以帮助澄清非专家矛盾的文献报告。随后，将讨论SET-LRP的原理和发展，以及当前可用于实践的方法。预计，该《观点》将能够帮助专家和非专家实践，发展，
