Copolymerization of amino olefins with ethylene by dinickel bisphenoxyiminato complexes
American Chemical Society 245th National Meeting
(2013)
Abstract
Dinickel bisphenoxyiminato complexes based on 1,4 and 1,3 terphenyl backbones were synthesized. Substitution of the central arene ortho to the side aryl moieties allowed isolation of syn and anti atropisomers. The syn atropisomers of the reported complexes afforded copolymerization of amino olefins with ethylene in the presence of a phosphine scavenger (Ni(COD)2). The ability of the syn atropisomers of these complexes to incorporate unprotected amino olefins by insertion polymerization was investigated by comparisons of the syn and anti atropisomers, and the 1,3 and 1,4 terphenyl systems. Further insight regarding the mechanism of polymerization with the reported complexes was obtained by copolymerizations of ethylene and 1-hexene in the presence of a variety of non-olefinic amines.
