Ethylene/Styrene Copolymerization by (Me3SiC5H4)TiCl2(O-2,6-iPr2-4-RC6H2) (R = H, SiEt3)-MAO Catalysts: Effect of SiMe3 Group on Cp for Efficient Styrene Incorporation.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The synthesis and structural analysis of (Me3SiC5H4)TiCl2(OAr) [OAr = O-2,6-iPr2-4-RC6H2; R = H, SiEt3] revealed that it exhibits higher catalytic activities than (tBuC5H4)TiCl2(OAr), Cp*TiCl2(OAr), with efficient comonomer incorporation in ethylene/styrene copolymerization in the presence of a methylaluminoxane (MAO) cocatalyst. The catalytic activity in the copolymerization increased upon increasing the charged styrene concentration along with the increase in the styrene content in the copolymers, whereas the activities of other catalysts showed the opposite trend.
