Carbocationic polymerization of N-ortho/meta/para tolyl-exo-norbornene dicarboximide (nadimide) was carried out using Pd(II) catalyst. Under similar conditions of polymerization, poly(N-m-tolyl nadimide) showed higher molecular mass compared to poly(N-p-tolyl nadimide) and poly(N-o-tolyl nadimide). Thermal stability of these polymers was evaluated by dynamic thermogravimetry in nitrogen atmosphere. The polymers were stable up to 460 °C and lost mass above this temperature in a single step. The characteristic decomposition temperature and char yield of these polymers were higher than the polymers prepared by using ring opening metathesis polymerization. The difference has been attributed to the presence of rigid bicyclic ring structure in these polymers.

Vibrational assignments of the complexes 2, PtCl2C7H8, and PdCl2C7H8 have been undertaken.A reinvestigation of the norbornadiene spectrum was necessary and a new set of assignments is given.The shift in energy of bands I and II and the out-of-plane olefinic C-H wagging modes, as well as the relative energies of the bands associated with the metal-olefin motions are consistent with the total metal-norbornadiene interaction following the order Rh > Pt > Pd and the excent of the ? component being ordered as Rh ca/= Pt > Pd.
