摘要

This feature surveys 2020−present Ni/Pd catalysts for ethylene copolymerization with fundamental polar monomers

linking [N

and [P

O] ligand platforms to mechanisms

microstructure

and scale-up priorities.

Abstract

Coordination-insertion copolymerization of ethylene with polar vinyl monomers offers a direct route to functionalized polyolefins

enabling regular incorporation of polar groups under mild conditions and superior microstructural control compared with post-functionalization or radical routes. The persistent polar monomer problem—the tendency of polar groups to coordinate to or poison active metal sites—motivates the focus on late-transition-metal catalysts

chiefly Ni and Pd. Recent advances in ligand design

catalyst engineering

and monomer modification have improved comonomer incorporation

suppressed chain transfer

and enhanced thermal robustness. Mechanistic studies now resolve 2

1- versus 1

2-insertion

ligand-induced chelate isomerization

and polar-monomer-promoted chain-transfer pathways. This feature article surveys nickel- and palladium-based catalytic systems reported from 2020 onward for copolymerization of ethylene with fundamental polar monomers

with an emphasis on acrylates

while also covering acrylic acid

vinyl acetate

butyl vinyl ether

acrylonitrile

acrylamide

vinyl silyl ethers

and selected disubstituted monomers

categorizing recent advances by key ligand classes ([N

O]) and linking mechanism

selectivity

and polymer properties to guide catalyst design and scale-up.
