For the first time, it is attempted to interpret an experimentally found enhancing effect of cycloaliphatic substituents in aromatic rings of NiII- and PdII-α-diimine and FeII-bis(imino)pyridine ethylene polymerization precatalysts on their catalytic activities at elevated temperatures (60–80 °C), using quantum chemical density functional theory calculations of relative stabilities of the complexes with respect to different deactivation processes, including thermal decomposition and one-electron reduction. It was shown that the effect correlates with the calculated higher thermal stabilities of cycloalkyl-substituted FeII-, NiII- and PdII-complexes as compared to the corresponding alkyl-substituted ones. NiII- and PdII-α-diimine complexes with cycloalkyl substituents are shown to be more stable than their alkyl-substituted analogues with respect to both thermal decomposition and one-electron reduction. The averaged difference of the thermal decomposition energies between the complexes with cycloaliphatic substituents on one side and aliphatic ones on the other side is ∼2.3 kcal/mol, corresponding to ∼30 times lower equilibrium constant of the thermal decomposition reaction for the cycloalkyl-containing complexes. For the FeII- and PdII-complexes, the thermal stability correlates with the calculated overlap population of the metal–nitrogen bonds. It was shown that the structure of o-substituents (cycloalkyls vs. alkyls) in the phenyl rings of the ligands does not affect the reaction energies for the transformation reactions of the precatalysts into their corresponding active catalytic cationic forms.
