SUBSTITUTED POLYCLIC, FUSED RING METAL COMPLEXES AND POLYMERIZATION PROCESS

摘要

Metal complexes comprising a polycyclic, fused ring ligand comprising at least: (1) a cyclopentadienyl ring, (2) a =J* substituted 7 membered polyatomic ring, where =J* is =(C)c=CR*2, =NR*, or =0, where R* is hydrogen, C1-10 hydrocarbyl, N,N-di(C1-4 alkyl)amino, or halogen, and c is 0, 1 or 2; and (3) one or more aromatic ring systems, with the proviso that said substituted 7 membered ring (2), is fused to both the cyclopentadienyl ring (1), and said one or more aromatic ring systems (3), polymerization catalysts, and olefin polymerization processes using the same are disclosed.
