This invention relates to a process to polymerize olefins comprising contacting, at a temperature of 60° C. or more and a pressure of at least 15 MPa, one or more olefin monomers having three or more carbon atoms, with: 1) a catalyst system comprising one or more activators and one or more nonmetallocene metal-centered, heteroaryl ligand catalyst compounds, where the metal is chosen from the Group 4, 5, 6, the lanthanide series, or the actinide series of the Periodic Table of the Elements, 2) optionally one or more comonomers, 3) optionally diluent or solvent, and 40 optionally solvent, wherein: a) the olefin monomers and any comonomers are present in the polymerization system at 40 weight % or more, b) the monomer having three or more carbon atoms is present at 80 wt % or more based upon the weight of all monomers and comonomers present in the feed, c) the polymerization occurs at a temperature above the solid-fluid phase transition temperature of the polymerization system and a pressure no lower than 10 MPa below the cloud point pressure of the polymerization system and less than 1500 MPa, in the event the solid-fluid phase transition temperature of the polymerization system cannot be determined then the polymerization occurs at a temperature above the fluid fluid phase transition temperature.
