Notable norbornene (NBE) incorporation in ethylene-NBE copolymerization catalysed by nonbridged half-titanocenes: better correlation between NBE incorporation and coordination energy.

CpTiCl2(N=CtBu2) exhibits both remarkable catalytic activity and efficient norbornene (NBE) incorporation for ethylene-NBE copolymerization: the NBE incorporation by Cp'TiCl2(X) (X = N=CtBu2, O-2,6-iPr2C6H3; Cp' = Cp, C5Me5, indenyl) was related to the calculated coordination energy after ethylene insertion.
