Roles of Salicylate Donors in Enhancement of Productivity and Isotacticity of Ziegler–Natta Catalyzed Propylene Polymerization

Roles of internal salicylate donors (SID) in enhancing activity and stereoselectivity of Ziegler–Natta catalyzed propylene (PP) polymerization were examined using DFT calculations. Five salicylate donors were studied. The chelate mode is the preferred adsorption mode. The linear relationship (R<s...
