    Iron-catalyzed polyethylene chain growth on zinc: Linear α-olefins with a poisson distribution

    , Angewandte Chemie - International Edition, Vol: 41, Pages: 489-491, ISSN: 1433-7851

    Bis(imino)pyridineiron complexes are not only highly active for ethylene polymerization, they are shown to catalyze efficient polyethylene chain growth at zinc centers - formally an iron-catalyzed Aufbaureaktion on zinc (see scheme). The grown alkyl chains can be displaced from the zinc centers by an olefin exchange reaction catalyzed, for example, [Ni(acac)2] (acac = acetylacetonate) to give linear α-olefins with a Poisson distribution.

    Iron and cobalt ethylene polymerization catalysts bearing 2,6-bis(imino)pyridyl ligands: Synthesis, structures, and polymerization studies

    , Chemtracts, Vol: 13, Pages: 303-308, ISSN: 1431-9268

    Chelating 2,6-bis(imino)pyridyl ligands, readily prepared via condensation reactions, coordinate to Fe(II), and Fe(III), and Co(II) halide salts to give monomeric, paramagnetic complexes. Activation of these compounds with methylaluminoxane results in highly reactive catalytic species for the production of linear polyethylene. Iron-based catalysts were found to be more active than cobalt-based systems, and ketimine ligands generally imparted enhanced efficiency compared to the analogous aldimine ligands. Bulky substituents at the ortho positions of the aryl groups were found to be crucial for optimal catalytic activity. Investigations of the various reaction conditions, including amount of MAO, ethylene pressure, reaction time and temperature, revealed that chain termination likely proceeds via two competing mechanisms, namely β-H transfer and chain transfer to aluminum.

    The search for new-generation olefin polymerization catalysts: Life beyond metallocenes

    , Angewandte Chemie - International Edition, Vol: 38, Pages: 428-447, ISSN: 1433-7851

    The introduction of well-defined, single-site organotransition metal olefin polymerization catalysts in the early 1980s highlighted the possibilities for controlling and dramatically improving the properties of commodity polymer products such as polyethylene and polypropylene. Group 4 metallocenes and half-sandwich titanium-amide complexes (constrained-geometry catalysts) have been at the forefront of these developments, and, as we approach the late 1990s, these catalysts are increasingly finding their way into commercial operations. However, it is generally acknowledged that no single class of catalyst will be capable of controlling all of the macromolecular parameters relevant to a wide and varied range of polyolefinic products. Over the past few years, an intense search has therefore developed, in both academic and industrial research laboratories, for new-generation catalysts. Some of the most significant recent developments have occurred with late transition metal systems. Particularly, the discovery of exceptionally active catalysts based on iron, a metal that had no previous track record of being applied in this way, has signposted the way for further technologically significant advances in the field. In this review, we highlight the key advances that have occurred in the discovery and development of non-Group 4 metallocene catalysts, amply demonstrating that there are significant signs of life beyond the Group 4 metallocenes. © Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 1999.
