Synthesis and styrene polymerisation catalysis of eta5- and eta1-pyrrolyl-ligated cationic rare earth metal aminobenzyl complexes.
The cationic rare earth metal aminobenzyl complexes bearing mono(pyrrolyl) ligands are synthesised and structurally characterised, and the coordination mode of the pyrrolyl ligands is found to show significant influence on the polymerisation of styrene.
