TY  - JOUR
AB - A series of bis(benzimidazole)-based cobalt(ii) dichloride complexes contg. a range of different central donors has been synthesized and characterized. The nature of the central donor affects the binding of the ligand to the cobalt center and dets. the coordination geometry of the metal complexes. All complexes have been shown to catalyze the polymn. of butadiene, in combination with MAO as the co-catalyst, to give cis-1,4-polybutadiene with high selectivity. The nature of the central donor has a marked influence on the polymn. activity of the catalysts, but does not affect the polymer microstructure. The addn. of PPh3 generally increases the polymn. activity of these cobalt catalysts and results in predominantly (60-70%) 1,2-vinyl-polybutadiene. [on SciFinder(R)]
