A new metallocene-based polymerization mechanism is elucidated in which a zirconium
hydride center inserts α-methylstyrene at the start of a polymer chain. The hydride is then …

A series of lanthanide alkoxo complexes supported by ONNO salalen ligands were
synthesized and characterized. A one-pot reaction of LH2 (L=(2-O–C6H2–t Bu2-3, 5) CH═ …

In this work, we report the use of the diffusion-ordered spectroscopy (NMR DOSY) nuclear
magnetic resonance (NMR) technique to follow the nitroxide-mediated polymerization …

NMR-based approaches play a pivotal role in providing insight into molecular recognition
mechanisms, affording the required atomic-level description and enabling the identification …

Biodiesel has been introduced as an energetic matrix in several countries around the world.
However, the affinity of biodiesel with the components of petrodiesel engines is a growing …

We followed the reactivity of acetone with 3‐aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, a potential
organosilane coupling agent, by 1H, 13C and 29Si NMR spectroscopy. Selective 1D and 2D …

This report reviews the progress in the field of NMR relaxation in fluids. The emphasis is on
comparatively simple liquids and solutions of physico-chemical and chemical interest, in …

FT-IR, DSC, and NMR techniques allowed the structural characterization of four copolymers
formed by styrene and methacrylic units (methacrylic acid (MAA), dimethylamine ethyl …

The synthesis of polystyrene-block-poly (methyl methacrylate)(PS-b-PMMA) is reported via a
metal free coupling reaction which generates block copolymers with satisfactory purity and …

In this chapter, the papers devoted to NMR application to study synthetic polymers over a
period from June 2011 through May 2012 have been reviewed. It includes analysis of …
