Five-Coordinate Rearrangements of Metallacyclobutane Intermediates During Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP) of 2,3-Dicarboalkoxynorbornenes by Molybdenum and Tungsten Monoalkoxide Pyrrolide (MAP) Initiators

Addition of rac-DCENBE (2,3-dicarboethoxynorbornene) or rac-DCBNBE (2,3-dicarbo-tert-butoxynorbornene) to Mo(NAd)(CHCMe[subscript 2]Ph)(Pyr)(OHMT) (1a) (Ad = 1-adamantyl, OHMT = 2,6-dimesitylphenoxide, Pyr– = NC[subscript 4]H[subscript 4]–) led to the formation of polymers that have a cis,syndiotact...
