Syntheses and properties of aliphatic and aromatic polythioesters (PTEs) were reviewed including polythiocarbonates and polythiourethanes. The content is subdivided into the following sections: PTEs of aliphatic α‐mercapto carboxylic acid, PTEs of ω‐mercapto carboxylic acids, PTEs derived from α,ω‐dimercapto alkanes, aromatic poly(thioester)s, aliphatic poly(thiocarbonate)s, aliphatic poly(thiourethane)s and aromatic polythiocarbonates. The synthetic strategies reviewed in this article include anionic and cationic ring‐opening polymerizations, polycondensations in bulk, polycondensations in solutions, interfacial polycondensations and in vitro enzymatic polycondensations.
