Isoprene polymerization with aminopyridinato ligand supported rare-earth metal complexes. Switching of the regio- and stereoselectivity.
The highly cis-1,4, trans-1,4 and 3,4-selective polymerizations of isoprene were successfully regulated by simply modifying the auxiliary ligands, metal centres and initiation groups of rare-earth metal complexes and cocatalysts.
