Group IV compounds bearing a novel tridentate N-donor ligand: synthesis, structures and ethylene polymerization

Abstract

Treatment of the mixed amidinate-amido-lithium, [PhN(CH2)3NC(Ph)NSiMe3]2Li4·2Et2O, with group IV metal chlorides yields the corresponding compounds 3–5. Their structures were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis, showing a distorted octahedral geometry. The catalytic behaviors of compounds 3–5 were investigated in the presence of MAO as a co-catalyst. Compounds 3 and 4 showed high activities for ethylene polymerization.
