Novel vanadium complexes bearing [OSSO]-type ligands having two phenolato units linked through the –CH2S(CH2)4SCH2– (1V) or –CH2S(CH2)2SCH2– (2V) bridge are synthesized with good yields by reacting a deprotonated ligand with VCl4. They are then used in ethylene (co)polymerization after activation with EtAlCl2 and Et2AlCl. In the presence of EtAlCl2, both complexes promote ethylene polymerization with very high activities, over 4 × 107 g/(mol h), leading to PEs with high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution. The prepared complexes exhibit lower activity for ethylene/1-octene copolymerization. It is also revealed that the catalyst based on the –CH2S(CH2)4SCH2– bridged complex shows both higher activity and higher comonomer incorporation ability than the catalyst based on the –CH2S(CH2)2SCH2– bridged complex. Upon activation with Al(iBu)3/Ph3CB(C6F5)4, complex 2V produces stereo- and regioirregular poly(1-octene), while 1V gives the isotactically enriched product.
