The reactivity of Ti-8 was investigated in comparison to a 6-(2-(diethylboryl)phenyl)pyrid-2-yl-free analogue (Ti-3).enghttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/540Constrained geometry catalystCopolymerizationHomopolymerizationOlefin1 hexene1,3 cyclohexadiene1,3-cyclohexadiene1-hexenealkenecyclohexene derivativepolymerstyrenetitaniumarticlecatalysischemistrynuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopyAlkenesCatalysisCyclohexenesMagnetic Resonance SpectroscopyPolymersStyreneTitaniumHomopolymerization of ethylene, 1-hexene, styrene and copolymerization of styrene with 1,3-cyclohexadiene using (η5- tetramethylcyclopentadienyl)dimethylsilyl(N-Ar')amido-TiCl2/MAO (Ar'=6-(2-(diethylboryl)phenyl)pyrid-2-yl, biphen-3-yl)Article
