Upon activation with methylalurninoxane(MAO), nickel complexes A--C all exhibited good catalytic activity[turnover frequency=5.2×10^5-16.3×10^5 g/(mol Ni-h)] and oligomer selectivity(above 85%, mass fraction) in ethylene oligomerization. In addition, C8--C12 olefins occupied an important proportion in the products of oligomers. Under the conditions of 4.0 MPa, 25℃ and A1/Ni molar ratio of 275, the catalytic selectivity of A/MAO system toward C8-C12 was about 30. 1%(mass fraction), and the content of C8--C12 a-olefins was consistently above 70%. Furthermore, besides the ligand environment, the catalytic properties of A-C were substantially affected by experimental parameters, such as the reaction pressure, reaction temperature and A1/Ni ratio.展开更多

The crucial problems are remaining in the catalytic systems: the catalytic systems targeting ethylene polymerization produce more oligomers at elevated reaction temperatures, however, there is a recognizable amount of high-molecularweight polyethylene remained in the modified catalytic system for the oligomerization process. Beyond the modification of bis(imino)pyridyl metal complexes, several alternative proeatalysts' models have been developed in our group. This review highlighted the achievements in exploring new iron and cobalt complexes with tridentate NNN ligands as procatalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization.展开更多

Effects of reactiontemperature, Al/Ni molar ratio and reaction period on both the catalytic activity and productdistribution were explored. The activity of 1.84 x 10~5 g of oligomer/(mol_(Ni)·h), with 87.4% ofselectivity to C_4―C_(10) olefins, was attained at 200℃ in the reaction when a catalyst composedof NiCl_2-(PhCH= o-NC_6H_4N= CHPh) and EAO was used.展开更多

On the basis of this precursor, a new mono(imino)pyridine ligand (5) and the corresponding Co(Ⅱ) complex {2-carbethoxy-6-[1-[(2,6-diethylphenyl)imino]ethyl]pyridine}CoCl2 (6) were prepared. The crystal structure of complex indicates that the 2-carbethoxy-6-iminopyridine is coordinated to the cobalt as a tridentate ligand using [N, N, O] atoms, and the coordination geometry of the central cobalt is a distorted trigonal bipyramid, with the pyridyl nitrogen atom and the two chlorine atoms forming the equatorial plane. Being applied to the ethylene oligomedzation, this cobalt complex shows catalytic activity of 1.820× 10^4 g/mol-Cooh at 101325 Pa of ethylene at 15.5℃ for 1 h, when 1000 equiv, of methylaluminoxane (MAO) is employed as the cocatalyst.展开更多
