Abstract:

AbstractA new dialkylzirconocene type of  complex, (1,2-ph2-4-MeCp)2ZrMe2(2),  was synthesized by reaction of (1,2-Ph2-4-MeCp)2ZrCl2(1) and with 2  equivalent of methyl lithium at -78 ℃. Complex 2 was charcterized by elemental analysis,  1H NMR and  13C NMR.  The structure of complex 2 was determined by single crystal X-ray structural  analysis. Upon activation with Al( i Bu)3/Ph3C+B(C6F5)-4,  complex 2 showed a high catalytic activity for the ethylene polymerization reaction at  lower  n(Al)/n(Zr) ratios and high molecular  weight polyethylene samples with high melting transition temperatures were  produced. The polyethylene samples were characterized by molecular weight determination, DSC and XRD analysis.
