Book Description
Olefin metathesis reaction can be considered as one of the most successful organic reactions with many applications in the low molecular weight range and also in the polymer field. The use of catalysts with their selective and effective transformation properties in olefin metathesis I polymerization systems is a growing interest. There has been great effort and competition in developing active and commercially useful catalysts. The main aim of this ASI was to gather several research groups and also the people from industry. to present existing knowledge and latest results in the field. A wide range of topics through homogeneous and heterogeneous aspects have been considered. Attention has been drawn to the metal-carbene and metallacyclobutane complexes as active species, the initiation mechanisms, the stereochemistry and thermodynamics of these reactions. New catalytic systems for the metathesis of alkenes and alkynes and fot' ring opening polymeriZation I block copolymerization reactions have been introduced. Spectroscopic studies for the characteriZation of catalysts, simulation studies explaining the function of chain carrier species and polymer degradation have also been covered. A detailed industrial report concerning the patents and applications in olefin metathesis I cyc1001efin polymerization area, fabrication and derivation has been presented. This volume contains the main lectures and seminars given at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on " Olefin Metathesis and Polymerization Catalysts: Synthesis, Mechanism and Utilization", held at Akcay. Babkesir. Turkey between 10th and 22nd September 1989.

Book Description
More than 30 years after the discovery of transition metals and organometal lics as catalysts for olefin polymerization these catalysts did not have lost their fascination. Since 1953 when Karl Ziegler has discovered the catalytic polymerization of ethylene leading to plastically formable polymers which are mechanically stable up to temperatures of about 100°C, synthetic polymers and rubbers have made their way right into private houses. This discovery has been a main impetus for the fast growing production of plastics. The stereoselective poly merization of propylene and other long-chain a-olefins first detected by Giulio Natta leads to an even broadened field of applications. Another enforcing factor were the developments of Standard Oil of Indiana and Phillipps Petroleum Company who engaged in the polymerization of a-olefins supported molybdenum, cobalt and later on chromium catalysts which clearly indicates the wide variety of suitable systems. This kind of research acknowledged merit when in 1963 the Nobel prize of chemistry was awarded to Ziegler and Natta. Although to a great extent there is a technical application for these catalysts, up to now the nature of the active centres and many reaction mechanisms are not completely known.

Book Description
Polyolefin is a major industry that is important for our economy and impacts every aspect of our lives. The discovery of new transition metal-based catalysts is one of the driving forces for the further advancement of this field. Whereas the classical heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta catalysts and homogeneous early transition metal metallocene catalysts remain the workhorses of the polyolefin industry, in roughly the last decade, tremendous progress has been made in developing non-metallocene-based olefin polymerization catalysts. Particularly, the discovery of late transition metal-based olefin polymerization catalysts heralds a new era for this field. These late transition metal complexes not only exhibit high activities rivaling their early metal counterparts, but more importantly they offer unique properties for polymer architectural control and copolymerization with polar olefins. In this book, the most recent major breakthroughs in the development of new olefin polymerization catalysts, including early metal metallocene and non-metallocene complexes and late transition metal complexes, are discussed by leading experts. The authors highlight the most important discoveries in catalysts and their applications in designing new polyolefin-based functional materials.
Development of Late Transition Metal Insertion Polymerization Catalysts

Book Description
Polyolefins are the number one commercially produced polymeric material by volume, and find ubiquitous uses as plastics, elastomers, and fibers. They are produced from gaseous olefins such as ethylene and propylene by the action of a transition metal catalyst. Despite tremendous academic and industrial efforts and successes in catalyst development over the past decades, the copolymerization of polar functionalized olefins with sufficiently high activities still remains a largely unsolved issue. Late transition metal catalysts were shown to be more suitable for this kind of polymerization reaction due to their generally lower oxophilic character. The main goal of this thesis was the development of novel late transition olefin polymerization catalysts based on ruthenium and palladium. Prior to this work, only few active olefin polymerization Ru-catalysts were reported. Several series of complexes based on ruthenium were synthesized, characterized and investigated for olefin polymerization. Ru(II)-complexes of the type RuCl2(N,N,N)L with facially coordinating nitrogen donor ligands (N,N,N = trispyridyl-, trispyrazoyl-, trisimidazoyl-methane derivatives) were found to be inactive towards ethylene polymerization. Employing bisanionic disulfonate phosphines as ligands gave Ru-complexes that produced linear, high-molecular weight polyethylene in the presence of an aluminum-alkyl based cocatalyst. Increasing the electrophilicity of the complex, by decreasing the donor strength of the ligand and using higher oxidation state Ru(IV)-complexes, the polymerization activity could be increased, and one of the highest activities for any Ru-based catalyst was observed. Polar additives such as acetone fully inhibited even the most electron-rich catalysts and copolymerization reactions yielded no polymer. In a different approach to solve the same problem, Pd-diimine complexes were modified with pendant olefin and boronate groups. Pd-diimine complexes can facilitate the copolymerization of ethylene with acrylates, and interactions of the pendant Lewis acid group with the functional, Lewis basic comonomer was anticipated to increase catalyst activity. However, no effect of a pendant pinacol boronate was observed on the incorporation ratio of methyl acrylate in room temperature copolymerizations. The ability of the pendant olefin to coordinate to cationic Pd-species resulted in hemilabile effects. Increased catalyst stability at the cost of decreased activities was found in comparison with unfunctionalized ligands.

Book Description
Even some fifty years after their discovery, transition metals have lost none of their fascination. The use of complex compounds in these elements has not only revolutionized synthesis in the laboratory, but has also led to them playing an important role in many industrial applications. Each year, millions of tons of plastics are produced around the world and, by varying the ligands in the catalytically active compounds, the properties of the resulting polymers can even be tailored for use. For this purpose, sandwich compounds from early transition metals have been common until now, but interest has focused increasingly on the late transition metals. In this book, the world's leading authors from research and industry discuss the latest developments in research into palladium, zinc, iron and nickel catalysis. In so doing, they systematically introduce readers to the basic principles and illustrate how these innovative catalysts can be effectively used for polymerizations. The result is an ideal reference work, invaluable for every organic chemist working in catalysis or polymer research.
