Aldimine 2,6-bis[(imino)methyl]pyridine iron(II) (1, 4, and 6) and cobalt(II) (3 and 5) complexes bearing bulky cycloaliphatic (bornyl and myrtanyl) or aromatic (naphthyl) terminal groups have been applied successfully, after activation with methyl aluminoxane (MAO), as catalysts for the polymerization of tert-butylacrylate. For comparison reasons, complex 2 that contains the ketimine ligand, 2,6-bis[(-)-cismyrtanylimino)ethyl]pyridine (BMEP), has also been utilized. All studied complexes showed moderate polymerization activities, and they produced high molar mass syndiorichatactic polymers. Surprisingly, the aldimine-based catalyst systems showed comparable activities compared with the corresponding ketimine complex (2), and they produced high molar mass polymers. In addition, complexes with bulky terminal cycloaliphatic substituents on the tridentate aldimine ligands showed higher polymerization activity compared with the aromatic ones (6). Polymerization activity and polymer molar masses are dependent on the ligand framework.
