Book excerpt: Polyolefin is a major industry that is important for our economy and impacts every aspect of our lives. The discovery of new transition metal-based catalysts is one of the driving forces for the further advancement of this field. Whereas the classical heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta catalysts and homogeneous early transition metal metallocene catalysts remain the workhorses of the polyolefin industry, in roughly the last decade, tremendous progress has been made in developing non-metallocene-based olefin polymerization catalysts. Particularly, the discovery of late transition metal-based olefin polymerization catalysts heralds a new era for this field. These late transition metal complexes not only exhibit high activities rivaling their early metal counterparts, but more importantly they offer unique properties for polymer architectural control and copolymerization with polar olefins. In this book, the most recent major breakthroughs in the development of new olefin polymerization catalysts, including early metal metallocene and non-metallocene complexes and late transition metal complexes, are discussed by leading experts. The authors highlight the most important discoveries in catalysts and their applications in designing new polyolefin-based functional materials.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled GROUP 4 COMPLEXES BEARING TRIDENTATE ARYLOXIDE- BASED ANCILLARY LIGANDS: SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND APPLICATION AS OLEFIN POLYMERIZATION CATALYSTS Submitted by Tam Ka Ho for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in 2006 The preparation, characterization, crystal structures and olefin polymerization behavior of a class of Group 4 complexes, and in particular the Zr(IV) derivatives 1 1 [Zr(L )Cl (D)] [H L = 2,6-di(3-tert-butyl-5-methylphen-2-ol)pyridine; D = ethers, 2 2 ketones and Cl(HPR )], have been undertaken. These [O, N, O] catalysts exhibit excellent activities with MAO for ethylene polymerization. Studies to assess the impact of the donor group during catalysis suggest that the same active species is generated and the donor does not play an active role. Superior activities were observed with the Bu Al/Ph CB(C F ) cocatalyst in ethylene polymerization and - 3 3 6 5 4 -1 -1 propylene copolymerization (36,590 and 15,700 g mmol h respectively). Insight into the behavior of the catalytic system with MAO has been derived from gel permeation chromatography and NMR analyses of the polymers prepared under 1 13 different reaction conditions. H and C NMR end-group analyses reveal resonances for saturated methyl chain-end groups only, and undetectable levels of unsaturated vinyl chain ends. This indicates that for the polymerization chain-transfer mechanism, the conventional β-H transfer reactions are insignificant and the unusual chain transfer to Al pathway is vastly dominant. Group 4 complexes supported by unsymmetric tridentate [O, N, O] ligands bearing different substituents on the two aryloxide rings have been prepared, in order to develop new catalytic systems capable of stereospecific α-olefin polymerization. Their activities for ethylene polymerization with MAO are significantly lower than the symmetric [O, N, O] analogues. A number of group 4 bis(benzyl) complexes supported by tridentate pyridine-2- phenolate-6-aryl [O, N, C] ligands, with alkyl and halogen substituents at the R position ortho to the metal, have been prepared. This enabled direct comparison with the CF -substituted [O, N, C] analogues, which were recently reported to exhibit novel C-H---F-C contacts in solution with potential applications for attractive ligand---polymer interactions. The molecular structure of the Zr derivative bearing an ortho-Cl group was determined, revealing the benzyl moieties in an unusual 'anti, anti' configuration. Saliently, this polyethylene catalyst in conjunction with Bu Al/Ph CB(C F ) displayed the best activity thus far observed for [O, N, C] 3 3 6 5 4 -1 -1 catalysts (8630 g mmol h ). A series of group 4 bis(benzyl) complexes supported by newly designed [O, C, N] ligands bearing R substituents ortho to the metal has been prepared, such that the σ- aryl moiety resides trans to the alkyl/polymer chain, and catalyst decomposition pathways such as olefin insertion into the M-C(sp ) bond are impeded. The crystal structure of the CF -substituted hafnium(IV) complex features weak intramolecular 31 C-H---F-C (CF ---methylene) interactions. The H NMR spectra of [M(O, C, N- CF )(CH Ph) ] analogues revealed coupling (assigned to J [via M---F] for Hf and

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 30 years after the discovery of transition metals and organometal lics as catalysts for olefin polymerization these catalysts did not have lost their fascination. Since 1953 when Karl Ziegler has discovered the catalytic polymerization of ethylene leading to plastically formable polymers which are mechanically stable up to temperatures of about 100°C, synthetic polymers and rubbers have made their way right into private houses. This discovery has been a main impetus for the fast growing production of plastics. The stereoselective poly merization of propylene and other long-chain a-olefins first detected by Giulio Natta leads to an even broadened field of applications. Another enforcing factor were the developments of Standard Oil of Indiana and Phillipps Petroleum Company who engaged in the polymerization of a-olefins supported molybdenum, cobalt and later on chromium catalysts which clearly indicates the wide variety of suitable systems. This kind of research acknowledged merit when in 1963 the Nobel prize of chemistry was awarded to Ziegler and Natta. Although to a great extent there is a technical application for these catalysts, up to now the nature of the active centres and many reaction mechanisms are not completely known.

Book excerpt: With an enormous velocity, olefin polymerization has expanded to one of the most significant fields in polymers since the first industrial use about 50 years ago. In 2005, 100 million tons of polyolefins were produced - the biggest part was catalyzed by metallorganic compounds. The Hamburg Macromolecular Symposium 2005 with the title "Olefin Polymerization" involved topics such as new catalysts and cocatalysts, kinetics, mechanism and polymer reaction engineering, synthesis of special polymers, and characterization of polyolefins. The conference combined scientists from different disciplines to discuss latest research results of polymers and to offer each other the possibility of cooperation. This is reflected in this volume, which contains invited lectures and selected posters presented at the symposium.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polyolefins are the number one commercially produced polymeric material by volume, and find ubiquitous uses as plastics, elastomers, and fibers. They are produced from gaseous olefins such as ethylene and propylene by the action of a transition metal catalyst. Despite tremendous academic and industrial efforts and successes in catalyst development over the past decades, the copolymerization of polar functionalized olefins with sufficiently high activities still remains a largely unsolved issue. Late transition metal catalysts were shown to be more suitable for this kind of polymerization reaction due to their generally lower oxophilic character. The main goal of this thesis was the development of novel late transition olefin polymerization catalysts based on ruthenium and palladium. Prior to this work, only few active olefin polymerization Ru-catalysts were reported. Several series of complexes based on ruthenium were synthesized, characterized and investigated for olefin polymerization. Ru(II)-complexes of the type RuCl2(N,N,N)L with facially coordinating nitrogen donor ligands (N,N,N = trispyridyl-, trispyrazoyl-, trisimidazoyl-methane derivatives) were found to be inactive towards ethylene polymerization. Employing bisanionic disulfonate phosphines as ligands gave Ru-complexes that produced linear, high-molecular weight polyethylene in the presence of an aluminum-alkyl based cocatalyst. Increasing the electrophilicity of the complex, by decreasing the donor strength of the ligand and using higher oxidation state Ru(IV)-complexes, the polymerization activity could be increased, and one of the highest activities for any Ru-based catalyst was observed. Polar additives such as acetone fully inhibited even the most electron-rich catalysts and copolymerization reactions yielded no polymer. In a different approach to solve the same problem, Pd-diimine complexes were modified with pendant olefin and boronate groups. Pd-diimine complexes can facilitate the copolymerization of ethylene with acrylates, and interactions of the pendant Lewis acid group with the functional, Lewis basic comonomer was anticipated to increase catalyst activity. However, no effect of a pendant pinacol boronate was observed on the incorporation ratio of methyl acrylate in room temperature copolymerizations. The ability of the pendant olefin to coordinate to cationic Pd-species resulted in hemilabile effects. Increased catalyst stability at the cost of decreased activities was found in comparison with unfunctionalized ligands.

Book excerpt: 45 years after the discovery of transition metals and organometallics as cocatalysts for the polymerization of olefins and for organic synthesis, these compounds have not lost their fascination. The birthday of Karl Ziegler, the great pioneer in this metalorganic catalysis, is now 100 years ago. Polyolefins and polydienes produced by Ziegler-Natta catalysis are the most important plastics and elastomers. New impulses for the polymerization of olefins have been brought about by highly active metallocenes and other single site catalysts. Just by changing the ligands of the organometallic compounds, the structure of the polymers produced can be tailored in a wide manner. In invited lectures and posters, relevant aspects of the metalorganic catalysts for synthesis and polymerization are discussed in this book. This includes mechanism and kinetics, stereochemistry, material properties, and industrial applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the start of the 1950s, Ziegler and Natta discovered that simple metallorganic catalysts are capable of transforming olefins into linear polymers with highly ordered structures. This pioneering discovery was recognized with a Nobel Prize in 1963. In the 80s and 90s, the development of molecular defined metallocenes led to a renaissance for non-polar polyolefin materials. Designer catalysts allowed a greater precision in defining properties of the material. The past 10 years have seen the discovery of new catalysts based on late transition metals, which allow the combination of polar monomers with non-polar olefins and thus lead to innovative materials. Here, the world's leading authors from industry and academia describe the latest developments in this fascinating field for the first time in such comprehensive detail. In so doing, they introduce readers systematically to the basic principles and show how these new catalysts can effectively be used for polymerization reactions. This makes the book an ideal and indispensable reference for specialists, advanced students, and scientists of various disciplines dealing with research into catalysts and materials science.
