A series of alkyl- and aryl-substituted iminopyridine Fe(II) complexes <b>1a</b>⁻<b>7a</b> and Co(II) complexes <b>2b</b>, <b>3b</b>, <b>5b</b>, and <b>6b</b> were synthesized. The activator effect, influence of temperature, and, particularly, the alkyl and aryl substituents' effect on catalytic activity, polymer molecular weight, and regio-/stereoselectivity were investigated when these complexes were applied in isoprene polymerization. All of the Fe(II) complexes afforded polyisoprene with hig ...[more]
