23. 2]/BnOH system remains stable at 110 °C, as observed for instance with TMC (Table 2, entry 4 vs 5).
24. n,theo is calculated from the initial concentration in chain transfer agent, i.e. in alcohol.
25. reg = 1) ROP.
26. 3/BnOH system was hardly regioselective whichever the temperature. (4)
27. Average value calculated from the relative intensities of the C(=O) resonances.
28. 3/BnOH system; a duplicated NMR analysis on an independently prepared polymer with this catalyst system gave identical results. The origin/identity of these signals remains obscure thus far.
29. 2) can be done due to the obviously different relaxation times of these inherently different groups.
