Abstract The photoinduced depolymerization of poly(olefin sulfone)s was investigated. Poly(olefin sulfone)s possessing base‐amplifying groups were synthesized. A photobase‐generating compound was mixed with poly(olefin sulfone)s and irradiated with 254 nm UV light. The decomposition ratio was significantly enhanced in poly(olefin sulfone)s that possessed base‐amplifying groups. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 47: 602–613, 2009
