چکیده
A number of cyclopentadienyltitanium aryloxide complexes, 1-Ar-2,3,4,5-Me(4)-Cp(2,6-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3)O)TiCl(2) (Ar = 4-Me(3)SiPhenyl (5), 4-(i)PrPhenyl (6), 4-MePhenyl (7), 3,5-(CF(3))(2)Phenyl (8)) and (1-Ar-2,3,4,5-Me(4)CpTiCl(2))(2)(OAr'O) (Ar' = 4,4'-(3,3',5,5'-(i)Pr(4)C(6)H(2)-C(6)H(2)), Ar = 4-SiMe(3)Phenyl (9), 4-MePhenyl (10)) were synthesized from the reaction of a corresponding cyclopentadienyl titanium trichloride derivative with the lithium salt of a relevant phenol. The molecular structures of complexes 6, 7 and 8 were determined by X-ray crystallography. Upon activation with (i)Bu(3)Al and Ph(3)CB(C(6)F(5))(4), all mononuclear complexes 5-8 exhibit good catalytic activities for propylene polymerization, whereas the binuclear complexes 9 and 10 show lower catalytic activities under the same polymerization conditions. (13)C NMR, DSC and GPC analysis indicates the produced polymers are atactic polypropylene with relatively high molecular weight. It was found that the substituents on both the cyclopentadienyl and aryloxy ligands of these complexes show obvious influence on the molecular weight of the resultant polymers with complex 5 producing the highest molecular weight atactic polypropylene. Complexes 5, 6 and 7 were also tested as catalysts for copolymerization of propylene with 1-hexene and copolymers with 1.2-10.1% comonomer incorporation were obtained in reasonable catalytic activity.

Cyclopentadienyl-titanium complexes containing –OC6H4X ligands (X = Cl, CH3) activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO) were used in the homo-polymerization of ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-pentene, 1-butene, and 1-hexene, and also in copolymerization of ethylene with the α-olefins mentioned. The -X substituents exhibit different electron donor-acceptor properties, which is described by Hammett’...

A novel imido-modified SiO2-supported Ti/Mg Ziegler-Natta catalyst for ethylene and ethylene/1-hexene polymerization is investigated. The catalyst is prepared by modification of (SiO2/MgO/MgCl2)TiClx Ziegler-Natta catalysts via supporting vanadium species followed by reaction with p-tolyl isocyanate as imido agents, to get the merits from both the SiO2-supported imido vanadium catalyst and the ...
