Quantitative formation of the intermediate of alkene insertion in the copolymerization of p-methylstyrene and carbon monoxide catalyzed by [(PriDAB)Pd(Me)(NCMe)]+BAr4–
Abstract
The intermediate after the first CO and p-methylstyrene insertion in the chain growth process of the copolymerization of these monomers has been quantitatively obtained from [(PriDAB)Pd(Me)(NCMe)]+[{3,5-(CF3)2C6H3}4B]– in CHCl3 at 20 °C.
