Fig. 3: Time-dependent SEC analyses.

a SEC for BT–Ni(dppp)Cl-catalyzed 1a polymerization using polystyrene (PSt) as the internal standard (THF, 25 °C, [1a]0/[Ni]0 = 100). b Plots of 1a conversion and –Ln([M]/[M]0) values vs. polymerization time. c Plots of the Mn and Mw/Mn of the fabricated polymers against 1a conversion.
