The novel inimer-containing fluorene units was successfully synthesized and characterized. Hyperbranched homopolymer and copolymers with methyl methacrylate (MMA) were prepared by the novel inimer via atom transfer radical polymerization where CuBr/1,1,4,7,10,10-hexamethyltriethylenetetramine (HMTETA) were used as catalyst. The copolymerization of inimer and MMA was performed under different ratio of the initial inimer/MMA and the inimer acted as not only the branched point (BP) but also the functional groups which emit blue light. The number-average molecular weight (M n) and polydispersity index (PDI) of polymers are in the ranges (3.6–18.4) × 103 and (1.3–2.8), respectively. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) results showed all polymers had good thermal stabilities. The number of the inimers acted as branched point in the copolymer backbone is estimated by 1H NMR spectra and UV–Vis absorption spectra.
