Titanium and vanadium catalysts with oxazoline ligands for ethylene-norbornene (co)polymerization

2018

A series of catalysts, (Py-ox)TiCl4, (Py-box)TiCl4, (Py-ox)VCl3, (Py-box)VCl3, SIL/(Py-ox)VCl3, SIL/(Py-box)VCl3, with 2-(1,3-oxazolin-2-yl)pyridine (Py-ox) and 2,6-bis(1,3-oxazolin-2-yl)pyridine (Py-box) ligands, silica support modified by 1-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]pyridinium ethylchloroaluminate ionic liquid (SIL), activated by AlEt2Cl, AlEtCl2, and methylaluminoxane (MMAO) were studied in ethylene polymerization and ethylene-norbornene copolymerization. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction is given for both Py-ox and Py-box. The complexation was confirmed by NMR and ESI-MS methods. All complexes were found to be active in ethylene polymerization with better performance of the vanadium cata…
