Cis-Selective Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization with Ruthenium Catalysts

  • 1. ROR icon California Institute of Technology

Abstract

Cis-selective ring-opening metathesis polymerization of several monocyclic alkenes as well as norbornene and oxanorbornene-type monomers using a C–H activated, ruthenium-based metathesis catalyst is reported. The cis content of the isolated polymers depended heavily on the monomer structure and temperature. A cis content as high as 96% could be obtained by lowering the temperature of the polymerization.
