Thermomorphic Polyethylene-Supported Olefin Metathesis Catalysts

Abstract: The preparation of polyethylene-oligomer (PE(olig))-supported N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (NHCs) and their Ru complexes is described. These complexes are structurally analogous to their low molecular weight counterparts and can serve as thermomorphic, recoverable/recyclable ring-closing metathesis (RCM) catalysts. Because of the insolubility of PE(olig)-supported species at 25 °C, such complexes can perform homogeneous RCM reactions at 65 °C and, upon cooling, precipitate as solids. This allows for their qu… Show more

“…The catalyst displayed relatively high recyclability up to 10 times with no significant loss of activity and low levels of Ru leaching was reported. 41 Despite these efforts, very little attention has been focused on using soluble polymer bound alkylidene Ru complexes in ROMP to prepare products with lower Ru contamination. Moreover, ROMP is a robust method for synthesizing functionalized polymers, producing totally linear materials.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, only few studies on ruthenium-catalyzed olefin metathesis transformation in TMS system and thermomorphic polymer supported catalysts have been reported [26][27][28]. Herein, we present our results on olefin metathesis transformations in TMS system employing propylene carbonate as the polar phase.…”
