To a 50 ml glass vial equipped with a Teflon® coated stirbar was added -pinene (2.5 ml), norbornene (5 g, 53.1 mmol) and chlorobenzene (35 ml). To this stirred solution at ambient temperature was added nickel ethylhexanoate (0.01 ml of an 8% w nickel solution in mineral spirits, 13 μmol) tris(pentafluorophenyl)boron (117 μmol in petroleum naphtha) and triethylaluminum (0.077 ml of a 1.7 molar solution in cyclohexane, 130 μmol). Immediately upon addition of the trialkylaluminum the reaction mixture became yellow and hot. The reaction was allowed to run for 60 minutes after which time methanol (3 ml) was injected to kill the reaction and the resulting solution was poured into excess methanol. The polymer was filtered off and washed with excess methanol and dried overnight in a heated vacuum oven to afford the copolymer (4.0 g). GPC analysis showed the polymer to have a molecular weight (Mw) of 39,800 and a polydispersity of 2.1.
