TL;DR: In this article, the density functional theory (DFT) at the PBE level was used to model the mechanism of the cycloaddition of ethyl acrylate to norbornadiene (NBD) catalyzed by Ni0 complexes.
Abstract: The mechanism of the [2+2+2] cycloaddition of ethyl acrylate to norbornadiene (NBD) catalyzed by Ni0 complexes was modeled in terms of the density functional theory (DFT) at the PBE level. The formation of the first C—C bond between the coordinated NBD and ethyl acrylate molecules is the rate-determining step of the process. The low stereoselectivity of the reaction is due to the close matching of the activation barriers for the formation of exo- and endo-cycloadducts (25.6 and 24.9 kcal mol−1, respectively).

TL;DR: In this article, the results of CO/alkene copolymerization with strained alkenes (e.g. norbornadiene) are presented. But the results are limited to the case of Cationic Rh(III) methyl complexes, i.e., the insertion of the alkene into a Rh−acetyl bond.

TL;DR: Myrecene undergoes successful triplet photosensitization within zeolite Y microreactor exchanged with K+, Cs+ and Tl+ heavy cations as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Myrecene undergoes successful triplet photosensitization within zeolite Y microreactor exchanged with K+, Cs+ and Tl+ heavy cations. Norbornadiene, 5,5-diphenyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene and dicyclopentadiene under the same conditions afford the corresponding triplet products with higher yields and improved diastereoselectivity.
