4. Ring-opening polymerization (ROMP)
4.1 Metathesis catalysts
Metathesis
is a redistribution reaction of alkylidene groups in alkenes [reaction
(13)
]. It therefore enables olefins to be prepared from other olefins:
When metathesis is applied to cyclic olefins (or cycloolefins) such as norbornene, ring opening takes place, leading to an unsaturated polymer [reaction...
