W(CO)6/CBr4/hv — a new system for metathesis polymerisation

TLDR
In this paper, an optimization study of W(CO) 6 CBr 4 / hv is presented, where the active species are characterised by reaction with acetophenone and copolymers of phenylacetylene and norbornene.
Abstract
Metathesis polymerisation can be effected with many catalysts under a variety of conditions. The system described here, viz., W(CO) 6 CBr 4 / hv , induces polymerisation by in situ generation of the active species and has not been reported in the literature so far. In this paper, optimisation studies of this system, yields obtained with various monomers and characterisation of the active species are discussed. Variation of different parameters such as the ratio of W(CO) 6 :CBr 4 , the time of photolysis and the effect of solvents as well as that of the metal carbonyls have been studied. In addition, copolymers of phenylacetylene and norbornene have been synthesised. We have also attempted to characterise the active species responsible for the polymerisation by reaction with acetophenone.

Carbonyl‐precursor‐based W/Al2O3 and CoW/Al2O3 catalysts: characterization by temperature‐programmed methods

TL;DR: In this article, the surface species formed during the gradual and controlled preparation process were studied by temperature-programmed methods, and the results of PCO and NH3-TPD measurements indicated that when the controlled gas phase preparation method is applied to zerovalent carbonyl precursor, the unfavourable formation of tungsten oxide can be minimized.

Metathesis polymerisation of phenylacetylene catalysed by (arene)Mo(CO)3 activated by electron acceptor chloranil

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that better control over polymer molecular weight and polydispersity was achieved with prior mixing of the metal carbonyl complex with the acceptor and by delaying the addition of the monomer.
