(Chemical Equation Presented) With a little help from a friend: Chain growth in olefin polymerization by [{PO}PdR] catalysts is believed to occur by unimolecular cis-P,R- to trans-P,R-[{PO}PdR(olefin)] isomerization, with subsequent insertion. Studies with [{PO}Pd(py)2]+ (py=pyridine) and non-equilibrium cis/trans mixtures of [{PO}PdClP(O-o-tolyl) 3] indicate that an external ligand is necessary for cis/trans isomerization of {PO}Pd complexes (see scheme). {PO}=2-Phosphinosulfonate.
