eethylene polymerization catalysts became available in an enormous variety. the challenge in this research is to find catalysts that are able to connect ethylene molecules in such a way that not only linear chains are produced but variations like branched materials that possess very interesting mechanical properties like linear low density polyethylene (lldpe). in this contribution, three diffe...

a series of dissymmetric dinuclear complexes were synthesized, as dual site catalysts in ethylene polymerization,by coupling the allylated a-diimine complexes of the metals ti, zr, v, ni and pd with the ansa-zirconocenecomplex [c5h4-sih(me)-c5h4]zrcl2 possessing a hydride silane moiety. the different stages of syntheses includedthe formation of bis(cyclopentadienide)methyl silane which was util...

An amidinato-phosphino ligand ArN[double bond, length as m-dash]C(R)NH(o-Ph2PC6H4) (Ar = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, R = Ph (1); Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3, R = Ph (2); Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3, R = tBu (3)) was prepared. The ligand reacted with CrCl3(THF)3 to yield the N,P-chelation complex [ArNHC(R)[double bond, length as m-dash]N(o-Ph2PC6H4)]CrCl3(THF) (4-6), and the ligand's lithium salt ArN[double bond, length as m-da...

A series of novel half-zirconocenes containing phosphine-(thio)phenolate chelating ligands of the type Cp'Zr(thf)Cl2[X-2-R(1)-4-R(2)-6-(PPh2)C6H2] (Cp' = C5Me5, 2a: X = O, R(1) = Ph, R(2) = H; 2b: X = O, R(1) = (t)Bu, R(2) = H; 2c: X = O, R(1) = R(2) = (t)Bu; 2d: X = O, R(1) = SiMe3, R(2) = H; 2e: X = S, R(1) = SiMe3, R(2) = H; Cp' = C5H5, 3b: X = O, R(1) = (t)Bu, R(2) = H; 3c: X = O, R(1) = R(...

Covalent organic framework (COF) particles with hydroxy groups and well-defined micropores have been synthesized used as novel carriers to load a metallocene catalyst—Cp2ZrCl2. The resulting supported catalyst, which had high specific surface area, demonstrated higher catalytic activity, better thermal tolerance, unique nanoconfinment effect during ethylene polymerization, producing polyethylen...

?-Diimine Ni and Pd complexes are one of the most examined late-transition organometallics in application catalyzed ethylene (co)polymerization. These organometallic catalysts provide unique advantages particular opportunities to tailor architectures, composition, topology synthesized polymers through polymerization. Two decades after their initial discovery, they still drawing extensive attent...

The 2-benzazole-1,10-phenanthrolines and their chromium(III) complexes were synthesized and characterized by elemental and spectroscopic analyses as well as by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. X-Ray crystallographic analyses of C6 and C8 reveal an octahedral geometry around both chromium centers. The electronic spectra of the chromium complexes exhibit d-d transitions typically of a pseudo...
