Synthesis of Norbornene-Functionalized ROMP BBNs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ROMP BBNs were synthesized by polymerizing norbornene-functionalized macromonomers (250 mg) with varied amounts of cross-linker. BBNs were all polymerized using either Grubbs’ second-generation catalyst (Sigma) or Grubbs’ third-generation catalyst at varied M/Is. For a typical reaction, the macromonomer and cross-linker were first dissolved in 1 mL of dried dichloromethane (DCM) in a 20 mL vial before adding 1 mL of catalyst/DCM solution. The reaction was allowed to run overnight before being quenched with three drops of ethyl vinyl ether (EVE, Sigma). Grubbs’ third-generation catalyst was synthesized using 2-bromopyridine from published protocols.36

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
