Journal ArticleDOI
Copolymerization of Ethylene and Propylene with Functionalized Vinyl Monomers by Palladium(II) Catalysts
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic Studies of the Palladium-Catalyzed Copolymerization of Ethylene and α-Olefins with Methyl Acrylate
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of reaction conditions and catalyst structure on the copolymerization reaction were rationalized, and the effect of the acrylate comonomer at the ends of branches as −CH2CH2C(O)OMe groups was analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nature or Petrochemistry?—Biologically Degradable Materials
TL;DR: The industrial-scale production of poly(lactic acid) from lactic acid generated by fermentation now provides a renewable resources-based polyester as a commodity plastic for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: New reactions enabled by a single class of ligands, phosphine-sulfonate (ortho-phosphinobenzenesulfonates), using their palladium complexes, are summarized, which have developed four unusual reactions, and three of these have produced novel types of polymers.
