Origin of different chain-end microstructures in ethylene/vinyl halide copolymerization catalysed by phosphine –sulfonate palladium complexes

New J. Chem., 2020, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/D0NJ03350B, PaperAndleeb Mehmood, Xiaowei Xu, Xiaohui Kang, Yi Luo Ethylene and vinyl halide (VX, X = F or Cl) copolymerization mechanism in the presence of catalystsA ((POOMe,OMe)PdMe, POOMe,OMe = {2(2-MeOC6H4)(2-SO3-5-MeC6H3)P}) andA ′ ((POBp,OMe)PdMe, POBp,OMe = {(2-MeOC6H4)(2-{2,6-(MeO)2C6H3}C6H4)(2-SO3-5-MeC6H3)P}) has been comparatively studiedvia density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
