1. A method for olefin oligomerization, the method comprising combining olefin monomers with a single-site organozirconium complex and a perfluoroarylborate compound in a non-polar non-coordinating solvent or a halogenated solvent, whereby the single-site organozirconium complex and the perfluoroarylborate compound mediate the oligomerization of the olefin monomers into an olefin oligomer comprising branches having end groups comprising vinyl groups, vinylidene groups, or a combination thereof, and reacting the end groups with one or more reactants to form functionalized end groups.
