Summary Some complexes derived from platinum(II) and palladium(II) initiate stereospecific polymerization of methylthiirane in homogeneous phase. When the metal environment is chiral no stereoelective polymerization occurs. The mechanism of polymerization initiated by platinum complexes seems to be similar to those proposed for zinc or cadmium derivatives whereas analogies are apparent between palladium and some aluminum derivatives, especially in the formation of great amounts of disulfide bonds during the polymerization.
