Abstract
New cationic palladium(II) complexes, containing C-S-nitrogen chelate ligan ds with pyrazol moieties, catalyze the copolymerization of styrene with CO under mild conditions, to produce a syndiotactic copolymer. Molecular weigh t and polydispersity for the obtained polymers are among the best reported for bisnitrogen planar ligands. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights r eserved.
