Cationic scandium aminobenzyl complexes. Synthesis, structure and unprecedented catalysis of copolymerization of 1-hexene and dicyclopentadiene

A structurally well-defined THF-free cationic half-sandwich scandium aminobenzyl complex serves as a novel catalyst for the first copolymerization of 1-hexene with dicyclopentadiene to give the random copolymers with a wide range of 1-hexene contents (32-70 mol%) unavailable previously.
