a Zero-order kinetic plots for polymerization of MMA by (BHT)2AlMe/µHex[P(NIiPr)Ph]2 in toluene at RT: [MMA]0 = 0.936 M; [µHex[P(NIiPr)Ph]2]0 = 0.588 mM; [(BHT)2AlMe]0 = 1.764 mM (◇), 2.352 mM (◆), 2.94 mM (▲), 3.528 mM (∆). Inset: plot of ln(kapp) vs ln[(BHT)2AlMe]. b Zero-order kinetic plots for polymerization of MMA by (BHT)2AlMe/µHex[P(NIiPr)Ph]2 in toluene at RT: [MMA]0 = 0.936 M; [(BHT)2AlMe]0 = 1.175 mM; [µHex[P(NIiPr)Ph]2]0 = 0.294 mM (◇), 0.588 mM (◆), 1.175 mM (▲), 1.764 mM (∆).
