Abstract
Selective 2,1-insertion of the monomer and subsequent elimination of the β-carbon atom of the growing polymer end is proposed as a new mechanism for polymer synthesis that involves ring opening of the monomer. A palladium complex promotes the ring-opening polymerization of 1-methylene-2-arylcyclopropanes to afford polymers with a vinylidene group in each monomer unit.
