Abstract
The thermal decomposition of [Me2Al (μ-OCPh3)] 2 to yield Ph3CMe and MAO is catalyzed by the addition of AlMe3; however, the reaction is also catalyzed by the MAO product. The overall reaction rate takes the following form: rate= k TMA [{Me2Al (μ-OCPh3)} 2][AlMe3]+ k MAO [{Me2Al (μ-OCPh3)} 2][MAO], where k MAO≫ k TMA. The Δ H⧧ for the AlMe3-and MAO-catalyzed reactions are similar; however, on the basis of the relative rates of reaction ...
