The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of linear low molecular weight alpha-olefins having 4 to 24 carbon atoms, comprising oligomerizing ethylene in an inert solvent in the presence of a catalyst system comprising: (i) zirconium carboxylate of the formula (R1COO)mZrCl4-m, wherein R1 is saturated or unsaturated aliphatic C1-C10 hydrocarbon or aromatic C6-C14 hydrocarbon and m fulfills 1@m@4, (ii) at least one aluminum compound selected from organoaluminum compounds of the formula R2nAlX3-n, wherein R2 is C1-C20 alkyl, X is chlorine, bromine or iodine, and n fulfills 1@n@2, and/or aluminoxanes, and (iii) at least two different additives selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, esters, ketones, ethers, amines, anhydrides, phosphines and sulfur compounds; as well as to a catalyst used therein. |
