33. In reference[9], the existence of a monometallic mechanism was also suggested in some HKR transformations under specific conditions (for instance, with oligomeric catalysts in dilute conditions).

39. A control experiment was performed to check if catalyst-leaching occurred during the recycling procedure. After 5h in the dynamic HKR of epibromohydrin, an aliquot was removed to check the conversion (30%). The mixture was diluted with THF and stirred for an additional 12h to reach 42% conversion (and 80%ee). The polymer was then removed by filtration and the recovered filtrate was stirred for a further 24h. No further modification in the composition of the solution was detected, thus confirming that the catalyst had been entirely suppressed.
40. The cobalt content of polymer 5 before and after 11cycles were 6.04% and 6.26%, respectively, as determined by elemental analysis. The slight increase in cobalt content might have originated from the hydrolysis of the Co-OAc units during the reaction or elimination of impurities from the original polymer.
41. The Co/F ratio was determined by elemental analysis in the fresh polymer and after reuse (after the 11th and 12thcycles) to be 1:0.64, 1:0.67, and 1:0.60.
