Generation effects on the microstructure and product distribution in ethylene polymerization promoted by dendritic nickel catalysts.
Carbosilane dendrimers Gn-[(ONNMe2)NiBr2]m, containing up to sixteen terminal pyridylimine nickel complexes, have been studied as catalysts for polymerization of ethylene; the microstructure and the oligomer/polymer distribution are significantly affected by the generation of the dendritic precursor.
