Original Kurzfassung:
The kinetic study of ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of a diester functionalised norbornene derivative,
(±)-exo,endo-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester, with a series of ruthenium benzylidene complexes
revealed the applicability of these initiators for well defined polymerization reactions. Values for the rate of initiation as well
as the rate of propagation of the initiators were determined and correlated to the molecular weight and polydispersity of the
isolated polymers. As the only initiator providing an entry to virtually monodisperse polymers the classical “first generation
Grubbs-catalyst” was identified, while N-heterocyclic carbene based initiators polymerized with a rate
