Polymerization of Ureidopyrimidinone-Functionalized Olefins by Using Late-Transition Metal Ziegler-Natta Catalysts: Synthesis of Thermoplastic Elastomeric Polyolefins

Mimicking nature: The central mechanisms of living organisms depend on the formation of specific hydrogen bonds. Advances in the areas of catalysis and supramolecular chemistry have been applied here for the synthesis of a novel class of elastomeric polyolefins (see scheme) with properties dependent...

Summary:Mimicking nature: The central mechanisms of living organisms depend on the formation of specific hydrogen bonds. Advances in the areas of catalysis and supramolecular chemistry have been applied here for the synthesis of a novel class of elastomeric polyolefins (see scheme) with properties dependent upon strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
