Tr. Boussie et al., Parallel solid-phase synthesis, screening, and encoding strategies for olefin-polymerization catalysts, TETRAHEDRON, 55(39), 1999, pp. 11699-11710
A solid-phase protocol has been developed that allows for the parallel synt
hesis, screening, and chemical encoding of nickel (II) and palladium (II) o
lefin-polymerization catalysts. These catalysts display activity profiles c
omparable to the analogous homogeneous catalyst systems prepared by traditi
onal methods. A chemical encoding strategy has also been developed which en
ables the chemical history of pooled solid-phase catalysts to be evaluated.
