چکیده

A series of bis(thiazolinyl)- and bis(thiazolyl)pyridine Thio-Pybox ligands and their metal complexes of chromium(III), iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) has been prepared, as well as a nickel(II) complex containing a monoanionic bis(thiazolinyl)phenyl Thio-Phebox ligand. These new metal complexes have been characterised and used as catalysts, in combination with the co-catalyst MAO, for the polymerisation of ethylene and for the polymerisation of butadiene. In the case of ethylene polymerisation, the Thio-Pybox and Thio-Phebox metal complexes have shown relatively low polymerisation activities, much lower compared to the related bis(imino)pyridine complexes of the same metals. In the polymerisation of butadiene, several Thio-Pybox cobalt(II) complexes show very high activities, significantly higher than the other metal complexes with the same ligand. It is the metal, rather than the ligand, that appears to have the most profound effect on the catalytic activity in butadiene polymerisation, unlike in the polymerisation of ethylene, where bis(imino)pyridine ligands provide highly active catalysts for a range of 1st row transition metals.

The effect of the central donor in bis(benzimidazole)-based cobalt catalysts for the selective cis-1,4-polymerisation of butadiene.

A series of bis(benzimidazole)-based cobalt(II) dichloride complexes containing a range of different central donors has been synthesized and characterized. The nature of the central donor affects the binding of the ligand to the cobalt centre and determines the coordination geometry of the metal complexes. All complexes have been shown to catalyse the polymerization of butadiene, in combination...

Transition metal complexes of triphosphorus macrocycles: A new class of homogeneous olefin polymerisation catalysts

Some early transition metal (Ti, V, Cr) complexes of the triphosphorus macrocycle 1,5,9-triethyl-1,5,9-triphosphacyclododecane, [12]aneP3Et3, and related derivatives [12]aneP3R3 (R = Ph, C3H6OMe) have been examined for their reactivity towards ethene and propene. All complexes of the type [12]aneP3Et3MCl3 display moderate catalytic activity in the homogeneous polymerisation of ethene when combi...

Ethylene ¯ame Synthesis of Well-aligned Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes

A stainless steel grid baked by a propane±air premixed ¯ame had iron, chromium and nickel oxide deposits on the grid surface. With this grid, entangled and curved shape multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were harvested from an ethylene±air di€usion ¯ame with yield rate of 3 mg/min. Nitrogen addition to the ¯ame was found to straighten the entangled tubes probably by lowering the ¯ame tempera...
