Abstract

The block and random copolymerization of a series of amino acid and amino ester functionalized norbornenes by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) induced by the well-defined molybdenum [Mo(=N-2,6-iPr-C 6H3)(=CHC-Me2)Ph)(OCMe3) 2] or ruthenium [Ru(PCy)2Cl2(=CHPh)] based initiators is described. The monomers are derived from the amino acids glycine, alanine, and isoleucine or the methyl esters of these amino acids and either endo- or exo-norborn-5-ene-2,3dicarboxylic anhydride. Enantiomerically pure monomers afforded optically active polymers, and the mechanism and kinetics of the copolymerizations are investigated. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
