Abstract
Synthesis and investigations of Nickel-based olefin oligomerization and polymerization catalysts, fluorinated alpha-Iminocarboxamide mu 3-Penzyl(II) Ni Complexes is reported. The synthesis of the above mentioned catalysts by the direct reaction of the potassium salt of the ligand, Ni(COD)(2) (bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)-nickel, and Benzyl halide in THF and starting temperature of -35 degrees C led to the formation of the two isomers: The [N-O] and the [N-N]. Moreover, the complexes di alpha- fluorinated Iminocarboxyamide Zr-dimmer has been synthesized, investigated and tested for ethylene polymerization.
