Abstract
Resting/dormant benzyl- and allyl-type Ti(IV) complexes formed under alpha-olefin polymerization conditions have been detected and characterized by NMR. Experimental and computational evidence supports a formation mechanism via reversible Ti-C bond homolysis rather than "classical" sigma-bond metathesis.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
