42. + cation has a band in roughly the right position, NMR results show that it is not generated in a high yield at this low Al/Zr ratio (ref 4).
43. A related scheme was sketched by Kaminsky and Steiger (ref 36) using an oxygen-bridged adduct. However, the linear representation used for MAO does not reflect the real availability of unsaturated oxygen.
