摘要

Metal coordination complexes comprising a metal of Group 3 (except Sc), 4-10 or the lanthanide series and a delocalized PI -bonded moiety have said moiety substituted with a constrain-inducing moiety which reduces the angle at the metal between the centroid of said PI -bonded moiety and at least one remaining substituted. Preferably, the complexes comprise a cyclopentadienyl or substituted cyclopentadienyl group forming part of a ring structure in which the metal is both bonded to an adjacent convalent moiety and held in association with the (substituted) cyclopentadienyl moiety. Complexes of said preferred structure are not necessarily constrained sufficiently to reduce the said angle. Amidosilane and amidoalkanediyl compounds are particularly preferred. The complexes of the invention form addition polymerization catalysts with activing cocatalysts such as Lewis acids, ammonium salts, oxidizing agents and, especially, aluminum compounds, particularly aluminum trialkyls. Novel polymers, including ElPE resins and pseudo-random copolymers, can be obtained using the catalysts of the invention.
