End-capped polymers, methods for making those end-capped polymers and compositions containing those end-capped polymers are disclosed. One of the disclosed end-capped copolymers has the formula: and may be combined with demineralized bone particles to form a tissue repair composition.

End-capped polymers and compositions containing such compounds

End-capped polymers, methods for making those end-capped polymers, compositions containing those end-capped polymers, and methods for using those compositions are disclosed. One of the disclosed end-capped copolymers has the formula (I): and may be combined with natural or synthetic bone minerals, bone tissue, collagen tissue, bone protein or combinations or derivatives of those materials to form a tissue repair composition.

A novel family of olefin polymerization catalysts comprising three-membered titanacarbocycles is described and illustrated. The titanacarbocycles can be readily synthesized by utilizing di-n-butyltitanium dichloride or di-t-butyltitanium dichloride at &minus;78&deg; C. in alkane, cycloalkane, or aromatic hydrocarbon media. These catalysts exhibit sufficient stability after their preparation that they undergo a remarkable, unprecedented reaction whereby the titanium dichloride moiety is efficiently transferred to a substrate like diphenylacetylene, ethylene, or similar compounds in order to generate the three-membered titanacarbocycles.

Synthesis of novel organometallics and their use in olefin polymerization

Metal is photolytically deposited from solution onto a substrate in contact with the solution by irradiating with light a solution containing a solubilized metal source and an organic compound containing a plurality of proximal Lewis base substituent groups so as to be capable of promoting the photoreduction of the metal onto the substrate.

Photolytic deposition of metal from solution onto a substrate

Metal is photolytically deposited from solution onto a substrate in contact with the solution by irradiating with light a solution containing a solubilized metal and a tetraarylborate compound capable of promoting the photoreduction of the metal onto the substrate.

Ketones are alkylenated to form the corresponding olefin by reaction with a bis(substituted alumino)substituted methane, e.g., in the form of its dietherate.
