Abstract

This review summarises the most interesting results concerning the application of W-Sn and Mo-Sn heterobimetallic compounds as initiators for the metathesis polymerisation of alkynes and the ring-opening metathesis polymerisation of cyclic olefins (ROMP). Special attention is given to compounds formed in the reaction of tungsten or molybdenum complexes and an organic substrate, viz. alkyne or cyclic olefin.
