Which consequence results when electron pairing is incomplete during polymerization?

💡 Explanation

Diradical formation gives two unpaired electrons because the **Hund's rule** favors maximizing spin multiplicity. Therefore, radical intermediates readily couple with adjacent chains, forming branched polymer architectures, rather than causing chain propagation or enhancing stereocontrol.
