Homogeneous polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-supported Pd-diimine complex and synthesis of polyethylenes end-tethered with a POSS nanoparticle via ethylene "living" polymerization.
A POSS-supported Pd-diimine complex, an homogeneous analog of a supported catalyst, was synthesized and applied for the unique synthesis of narrow-distributed polyethylene chains containing an end-tethered POSS nanoparticle by ethylene "living" polymerization.
