TRANSITION METAL COMPLEX, PREPARATION METHOD FOR SAID TRANSITION METAL COMPLEX, TRIMERIZATION CATALYST, PREPARATION METHOD FOR 1-HEXENE, PREPARATION METHOD FOR ETHYLENE POLYMER, SUBSTITUTED CYCLOPENTADIENE COMPOUND, AND PREPARATION METHOD FOR SAID SUBSTITUTED CYCLOPENTADIENE COMPOUND

摘要

Disclosed is transition metal complex that serves as a catalytic component capable of efficiently preparing 1-hexene with excellent selectivity, even under high temperature conditions, by means of an ethylene trimerization reaction. Also disclosed is a method for economically preparing a butyl-branched ethylene polymer, even under high temperature conditions, by using said transition metal complex as an ethylene trimerization catalyst, and polymerizing ethylene in the presence of an olefin polymerization catalyst that is obtained by bringing an olefin copolymerization catalyst and an activating co-catalytic component into contact with one another. Said transition metal complex is represented by the following general formula (1). [M1 represents a Group 4 transition metal atom, and R1 to R11 and X1 to X3 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or a specific organic group.]
