Application

5-Norbornen-2-yl acetate (mixture of endo and exo) was used to study the ring opening metathesis polymerization of norbornene catalysed by dinuclear complex Cp*2Os2Br4 (Cp*=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) and related compounds.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-Norbornen-2-yl acetate undergoes copolymerisation with ethylene by nickel catalyst system to form high molecular weight functionalized polyethylene bearing ester functionalities. -Norbornen-2-yl acetate is the starting reagent for synthesis of urea condensation products from a-dicarbonyl compounds using Bi (OTf)3 catalyst.
