Summary on Grant Application Form
Nickel catalysts containing chiral b-ketophosphines will be examined for the stereoregular polymerisation of a wide range of alkenes, especially oxygenates including acrylates, vinyl and allyl esters and vinyl and allyl ethers. It is anticipated that anchimeric assistance may improve the stereocontrol over the polymer microstructure.
