Abstract
Summary: Copolymers of propylene with 1^13^C‐ethylene (99% isotopic purity) have been prepared in the presence of Cp*Ti(CH~3~)~3~ – B(C~6~F~5~)~3~ (I) or CpTi(CH~3~)~3~ – B(C~6~F~5~)~3~ (II) (Cp = cyclopentadienyl, Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl). ^13^C NMR analysis confirms previous findings that propylene polymerization in the presence of I is highly regioselective and somewhat isoselective, while catalyst II produces regioblock polypropylene. In the presence of II, polymerization is slightly syndioselective and the average size of the primary regioblocks seems larger than that of the secondary ones. Moreover, secondary insertion seems more syndioselective than the primary.
