Phosphoramidate Tantalum Complexes for Room‐Temperature CH Functionalization: Hydroaminoalkylation Catalysis
Abstract: A new catalytic hydroaminoalkylation reaction at room temperature using an easily prepared tantal complex is presented.

Understanding the ring-opening polymerisation of dioxolanones
TL;DR: In this paper, a new mechanism of ring-opening for these monomers, involving competitive elimination and a subsequent Tishchenko reaction facilitated by formaldehyde, was proposed, with sterically-unencumbered and electronically neutral salen aluminium catalysts exhibiting the best performance in the ROP of 5-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-one (PhDOX), providing the best balance of reactivity and selectivity.

Controlled Radical Polymerization of Vinyl Acetate Mediated by a Bis(imino)pyridine Vanadium Complex
Laura E. N. Allan,Edward D. Cross,Timothy W. Francis-Pranger,M. Emre Hanhan,Michael R. Jones,Jason K. Pearson,Mitchell R. Perry,Tim Storr,Michael P. Shaver +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanism of controlled radical polymerization of vinyl acetate using vanadium catalysts is investigated using a range of experimental and computational studies, and the optimal control is achieved using the noninnocent bis- (imino)pyridine ligand framework.
Catalytic Synthesis of Secondary Amine-Containing Polymers: Variable Hydrogen Bonding for Tunable Rheological Properties
Mitchell R. Perry,Tannaz Ebrahimi,Erin Morgan,Peter M. Edwards,Savvas G. Hatzikiriakos,Laurel L. Schafer +5 more
TL;DR: Aryl-substituted secondary amine-containing polymers can be readily incorporated to access variable hydrogen-bonding characteristics as discussed by the authors, and the effect of hydrogen bonding on the bulk properties of these polymers has been shown.

Organometallic mediated radical polymerization of vinyl acetate using bis(imino)pyridine vanadium trichloride complexes.
Mitchell R. Perry,Laura E. N. Allan,Laura E. N. Allan,Andreas Decken,Michael P. Shaver,Michael P. Shaver +5 more
TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization of one novel proligand and six novel vanadium(III) trichloride complexes is described and expansion of the monomer scope to include other vinyl esters, particularly those derived from renewable resources, shows promising results.
