The scope of the univalent gallium salts [Ga-(C6H5F)(2)](+)[Al(ORF)(4)](-) and the new completely characterized [Ga(1,3,5-Me3C6H3)(2)](+)[Al(ORF)(4)](-) (R-F = C(CF3)(3)) was investigated in terms of initiating or catalyzing the synthesis of highly reactive poly(2-methylpropylene)-highly reactive polyisobutylene (HR-PIB)-in several solvents. A series of polymerization reactions proved the high efficiency and quality of the univalent gallium salts for the polymerization of isobutylene. The best results were obtained using very low concentrations of [Ga(C6H5F)(2)](+)[Al(ORF)(4)](-) (down to 0.007 mol%) while working at reaction temperatures of up to +/- 0 degrees C and in the noncarcinogenic and non-water hazardous solvent toluene. Under these conditions, HR-PIB with an alpha-content of terminal olefinic double bonds up to 91 mol% and a molecular weight of 1000-2000 was obtained in good yields. Upon changing [Ga(C6H5F)(2)](+)[Al(ORF)(4)](-) for the electron richer [Ga(1,3,5-Me3C6H3)(2)](+)[Al-(ORF)(4)](-), polymerization temperatures could be increased to +10 degrees C. The reactivity of the gallium(I) cations therefore seems to be tunable through ligand exchange reactions. Experimental results, density functional theory calculations, and mass spectrometric investigations point toward a coordinative polymerization mechanism.
