摘要: Highly active catalyst systems for the ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of strained (norbornene) and low-strain (cyclooctene) olefins are readily prepared from RuCl2(arene)(PR3) precursors (directly available by addition a phosphine to stable [(arene)RuCl2]2 dimers) after activation with (trimethylsilyl)diazomethane. Durene or p-cymene as arene ligands, together sterically demanding basic (typically tricyclohexylphosphine), promoted formation most catalysts. The effects ligands solvent on polynorbornene polyoctenamer molecular weight distributions microstructures were investigated. excellent functional group compatibility system was illustrated synthesis variety polyoctenamers bearing epoxide, acid, ether, ester, acetal, bromine functionalities. polymers isolated in quite good yields. striking positional influence the...
