The polymerization of norbornene in the presence of different bis(salicylaldiminate)copper(II) complexes and methylalumoxane has been investigated. In all cases a high molecular weight vinyl-type polymer was obtained. The presence of electron-withdrawing nitro groups on the chelate ligand markedly increased the activity of the catalyst. The influence on the catalytic performances and polymer characteristics as a function of reaction parameters, such as temperature, duration, and content of free trimethyl aluminum in the commercial MAO, was studied.

Abstract
The polymerization of norbornene in the presence of different bis(salicylaldiminate)copper(II) complexes and methylalumoxane has been investigated. In all cases a high molecular weight vinyl-type polymer was obtained. The presence of electron-withdrawing nitro groups on the chelate ligand markedly increased the activity of the catalyst. The influence on the catalytic performances and polymer characteristics as a function of reaction parameters, such as temperature, duration, and content of free trimethyl aluminum in the commercial MAO, was studied.File in questo prodotto:
