Metal Complexes as Catalysts/Moderators for Polymerization Reactions

This article highlights the most representative results on the use of coordination compounds in polymerization reactions, since the version of the Comprehensive Coordination Chemistry II by Gibson and Marshall (2003). Noteworthy developments of more efficient catalysts and related significant advancements in coordination polymerization of olefins, radical polymerization, lactide and related cyclic esters polymerization and CO2/epoxides polymerization are discussed therein.
