Carbon-Carbon Bond Forming Reactions from Bis(carbene)-Platinum(II) Complexes and Olefin Polymerization and Oligomerization using Group 4 Post-Metallocene Complexes
<p>A long-standing challenge in transition metal catalysis is selective C–C bond coupling of simple feedstocks, such as carbon monoxide, ethylene or propylene, to yield value-added products. This work describes efforts toward selective C–C bond formation using early- and late-transition metals...
