A Computational Evaluation of the Steric and Electronic Contributions in Stereoselective Olefin Polymerization with Pyridylamido-Type Catalysts

A density functional theory (DFT) study combined with the steric maps of buried volume (%<i>V</i><sub>Bur</sub>) as molecular descriptors and an energy decomposition analysis through the ASM (activation strain model)–NEDA (natural energy decomposition analysis) approach were...
