First Cr(III)-SNS complexes and their use as highly efficient catalysts for the trimerization of ethylene to 1-hexene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cr(III) complexes of tridentate SNS ligands have been prepared and evaluated as catalysts for ethylene trimerization, with several giving very high activity and excellent selectivity toward 1-hexene when activated with methylaluminoxane. The new complexes illustrate the potential of sulfur-based ligands on early transition metals for catalysis.

A well-defined model system for the chromium-catalyzed selective oligomerization of ethylene.
The chromium(I) dinitrogen complex [(i-Pr2Ph)2nacnacCr]2(μ-η(2):η(2)-N2) catalyzes the selective trimerization of ethylene to 1-hexene at ambient pressure and temperature, and in the absence of any cocatalyst. After the conversion of the substrate, the catalyst cleanly converts to another chromium(I) species, namely [(i-Pr2Ph)2nacnacCr]2(μ-η(2):η(2)-C2H4), which is not catalytically active. Bin...
متن کاملMechanistic studies of the ethylene trimerization reaction with chromium-diphosphine catalysts: experimental evidence for a mechanism involving metallacyclic intermediates.
A system for catalytic trimerization of ethylene utilizing CrCl3(THF)3 and a diphosphine ligand PNPOMe [= (o-MeO-C6H4)2PN(Me)P(o-MeO-C6H4)2] has been investigated. The coordination chemistry of chromium with PNPOMe has been explored, and (PNPOMe)CrCl3 and (PNPOMe)CrPh3 (3) have been synthesized by ether displacement from chromium(III) precursors. Salt metathesis of (PNPOMe)CrCl3 with o,o'-biphe...

Nine different bis(arylimino)pyridine complexes of Fe(III) with different halide substituents (F, Cl, Br, I) at different positions of the iminophenyl group of the ligand have been synthesized, characterized and applied for homogeneous 1-pentene and 1-hexene oligomerization and co-oligomerization reactions after activation with methylaluminoxane (MAO). The best activity in 1-hexene oligomerizat...

The chromium/vanadium bimetallic Phillips catalysts developed by our research group have been proved to be a promising process to produce bimodal polyethylene using a single-reactor process. The vanadium loading of CrV-1/1, CrV-1/2, and CrV-1/3 has a significant effect on the polymerization activity, product molecular weight (MW), as well as th...
