    A facile synthesis of oligo­(thiophene)-modified (coated) “soluble” star (ball)-shaped polymers has been achieved via sequential living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of norbornene and a cross-linking reagent using Mo­(CHCMe<sub>2</sub>Ph)­(N-2,6-<sup><i>i</i></sup>Pr<sub>2</sub>C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>3</sub>)­(O<sup><i>t</i></sup>Bu)<sub>2</sub> as the initiator and oligo­(thiophene) carboxaldehydes for termination. The resultant star-shaped ROMP polymers containing ter- and tetrathiophene moieties exhibit unique emission properties due to an integration of the ROMP polymers (arranged functionalities): the blue emission was tuned to the white emission upon addition of 2-[2-[(<i>E</i>)-4-(dimethylamino)­styryl]-6-methyl-4<i>H</i>-pyran-4-ylidene]­malononitrile

    Poly­(9,9-di-<i>n</i>-octylfluorene-2,7-vinylene)­s containing F-BODIPY [PFV-(F-BODIPY)<sub>2</sub>] and Zn­(II)-porphyrin have been prepared by olefin metathesis of the vinyl group in the PFV chain ends followed by subsequent Wittig-type coupling. An introduction of tris­(2,5-dialkoxy-1,4-phenylene vinylene) into PFV-(F-BODIPY)<sub>2</sub> has also been achieved. The emission properties can be modified by the PFV chain length, chromophore, and the middle segment: PFV-(F-BODIPY)<sub>2</sub> exhibits white-light emission with high quantum efficiency
