Metathesis polymerisation of norbornene and its derivatives. Relative stability of tungstacyclobutane intermediates and kinetics of their ring opening to form tungsten–carbene complexes

Abstract

A family of tungstacyclobutane intermediates in the catalytic ring-opening polymerisation of norbornenes have been studied by 1H n.m.r.; their rates of rearrangement into tungsten–carbene complexes are reported and compared.
