摘要
The group 4 mixed-ligand compounds [CpM-(NC5H4(CR2O)-2)Cl-2] (M = Ti; R = Pr-i (1a), Ph (1b); M = Zr, R = Pr-i (2a), Ph (2b)) have been prepared and characterized. Single-crystal X-ray analyses reveal that 2a and 2b adopt four-legged piano-stool structures in which the cyclopentadienyl Ligand is asymmetrically bonded and the pyridylalkoxide is bidentate. Toluene solutions [CpM(NC5H4(CR2O)-2)Cl-2] and methylaluminoxane catalyze the polymerization of ethylene generating high molecular weight polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions. The activity of the titanium- and zirconium-based catalysts are comparable.
