Abstract
Complexes Co[OC(Ph)CHC(Me)NAr](2) [Ar=Ph, 1; o,o'-C(6)H(3)Me(2) (Xyl), 2; p-C(6)H(4)CF(3), 3] are tested in the polymerization of vinyl acetate (VAc) initiated by V-70 (0.8 equiv) at 30 degrees C. Polymerization occurs without any notable induction time yielding PVAc with relatively low polydispersity, but with higher than expected M(n) values, which indicates inefficient trapping processes. The apparent polymerization rate constant varies in the order 2>1>3. Controlled polymer growth is also observed when the polymerization is conducted in the presence of a much higher V-70/1 ratio, demonstrating that this system can also function as a transfer agent in a degenerative transfer process. Competition between chain growth and catalyzed chain transfer (CCT) is also observed, the latter prevailing at higher temperatures. Comparison of these results with previous reports on bis(beta-diketonato) complexes allows a separate assessment of ligand electronic and steric effects in the ability to control polymerization.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
