The effect of monomer concentration, reaction temperature and initiator structure on the activity, molar mass, branching and thermal properties of poly(hex-1-ene)s was investigated for the polymerization of hex-1-ene initiated by four alpha-diimine complexes of nickel and palladium. Hex-1-ene polymerization exhibits an apparent negative kinetic order with respect to monomer concentration. Polymerization of hex-1-ene initiated by MAO activated 1,4-bis(2, 6-diisopropylphenyl)acenaphtenediiminenickel(II) dibromide (1a/MAO) proceeds in living-like fashion not only at sub-zero temperatures but even at 20degreesC. However, molar masses of the polymers are higher than predicted values in agreement with an initiator efficiency lower than one.Read less <
