Vinyl ethers, 1-olefins, and styrene were homo- and copolymerized by the use of catalyst derived from a mixture of lithium tetraalkylaluminate (LiAlR4), aluminum chloride (AlCl3), and titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4), in order to determine the nature of the active components present.It is postulated that the active catalyst in the stereospecific polymerization of vinyl ethers is ether-coordinated TiCl3•LiCl, while in the polymerization of 1-olefins and styrene, it is the alkylated derivatives of TiCl3•LiCl.For homo- and copolymerization of styrene, AlR3 seems to be the preferred alkylating agent. About 3 to 4 equivalents of AlR3 are needed for complete alkylation of TiCl3•LiCl, probably due to heterogeneity of the system.Highly isotactic polystyrene and copolymers of styrene with 1-olefins can be prepared in good yields by the use of this catalyst.

Synthetic polymers are mixtures of different length chains, and their chain length and chain conformation is often experimentally characterized by ensemble averages. We demonstrate that Double-Electron-Electron-Resonance (DEER) spectroscopy can reveal the chain length distribution, and chain conformation and flexibility of the individual n-mers in oligo-(9,9-dioctylfluorene) from controlled Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling Polymerization (cSMCP). The required spin-labeled chain ends were introduced efficiently via a TEMPO-substituted initiator and chain terminating agent, respectively, with an in situ catalyst system. Individual precise chain length oligomers as reference materials were obtained by a stepwise approach. Chain length distribution, chain conformation and flexibility can also be accessed within poly(fluorene) nanoparticles.
