And the article was published in Organometallics in 2019. Application In Synthesis of 5-Hexen-1-ol The author mentioned the following in the article:
Ni2+ coordinated within a bowl-shaped diimine ligand with two pentiptycenyl-substituents [(ArN:CRCRN:Ar)NiBr2] (Ar = pentiptycenyl, 3a, RR = 1,8-naphthalenediyl, 3b, R = Me) displays excellent activity for the polymerization of ethene (7 atm) with activities of up to 34 × 103 kg(mol Ni)-1 h-1 following activation with Et2AlCl. The resulting polymer is characterized by high mol. weights (Mn = 150 × 103 g·mol-1), low branching (12/1000 C), and a high m.p. (Tm = 133 °C). The polymerization of ethene with polar comonomers leads to the formation of the resp. polar polymers with very efficient incorporation of comonomer. The activity of the catalyst critically depends on the molar ratio of Et2AlCl activator and the polar functional group. In the experiment, the researchers used 5-Hexen-1-ol(cas: 821-41-0Application In Synthesis of 5-Hexen-1-ol)
5-Hexen-1-ol(cas: 821-41-0) is used in cyclization to a tetrahydropyran by phenylselenoetherification. It is also used as a building block in synthetic chemistry.Application In Synthesis of 5-Hexen-1-ol
