We studied the reversible trans-alkylation (s) mechanism for the chain shuttling process by
means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with% V Bur steric maps …

Ion pairing is known to play a key role in stoichiometric and catalytic reactions mediated by
charged transition metal complexes, especially when they are conducted in low-polar …

Living coordinative chain transfer polymerization (LCCTP) of α-olefins, including propene, 1-
hexene, 1-decene, and 4-methyl-1-pentene, using the Hf pre-initiator 1, the borate co …

Synthesis of long-chain branched polymers has been a crucial concern in the polyolefin
industry. In this study, a method to produce long-chain branches (LCBs) in coordinative …

Developing olefin polymerization catalytic systems for both high activity and high chain
transfer efficiency by using coordinative chain transfer polymerization (CCTP) is critical for …

In this report, we apply the chromophore quench-labeling (CQL) technique to living,
homogeneous polymerization catalysts and living coordinative chain-transfer polymerization …

Sub-stoichiometric activation of a transition-metal pre-initiator by a borate coinitiator in the
presence of excess equivalents of a single or two different types of main-group-metal alkyls …

1-Octene insertion reaction by the cationic active species of (pyridylamido) Hf (IV) catalyst
(HfCat+) was investigated, focusing on the effect of the counteranions (CAs), MeB (C6F5) 3 …

Metalloenzyme is a source of inspiration for chemists who attempt to create versatile
synthetic catalysts for aqueous catalysis. Herein, we impart metalloenzyme-like …

Copolymerization of ethene and 1-octene is catalyzed by the Hf-pyridyl amido complex used
