In this study, several α-diimine nickel complexes were prepared by merging a bulky
dibenzobarrelene backbone and bulky dibenzhydrylanilines. The single-crystal X-ray …

Recently, late-transition-metal-catalyzed chain-walking polymerization has emerged as a
promising method for synthesizing a range of polyethylenes, including linear, branched, and …

Chain walking and chain transfer are pivotal processes that govern the microstructure and
molecular weight of polyolefins synthesized via late transition metal-catalyzed ethylene (co) …

Concerted effect of steric and electronic substituents is a powerful strategy to enhance the
catalytic performance of α-diiminonickel precatalysts for ethylene polymerization, but less …

The catalytic synthesis of polyolefin elastomers by using ethylene as a sole feedstock is

8-aryl or alkyl-naphthyl substituents are widely used as an effective axial shielding strategy
for the suppression of chain transfer in late-transition metal-catalyzed ethylene (co) …

A new family of neutral salicylaldiminato nickel (II) catalysts (Ni1–Ni5) is developed with
various well-designed ortho substituents to the phenoxy moiety and these show moderate to …

Comprehensive Summary Usually, the aniline‐based late‐transition‐metal catalysts often
require bulky steric substituents on both sides of the ortho‐aryl position to achieve efficient …

Ligand steric hindrance and electronic effects play a crucial role in late-transition metal-
catalyzed olefin polymerization. In this research, a series of o-aryl halogenated α-diimine …

Recently, the structural symmetry of α-diimine nickel catalysts was demonstrated to have a
pronounced effect on the microstructure of the resulting polyethylene. In this study, two plane …
