ABSTRACT
Targeting pour point depressants of low-molecular weight and branched polyethylenes, a series of 9-[2,4-bis(benzhydryl)-6-R-phenylimino]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-cycloheptapyridine-nickel complexes (Ni1-Ni10) were developed as efficient precatalysts. Upon activation with either EASC or MAO, all nickel complex precatalysts exhibited high activity [up to 8.12 × 106 g PE (mol of Ni)-1 h-1] with single-site behavior toward ethylene polymerization, producing low-molecular weight and unimodal polyethylenes. The resultant polyethylenes possessed high branching with predominant methyl groups and longer chains, along with either internal vinylene or vinyl end groups. The activities of these complex precatalysts were heavily rationalized on the basis of the electronic and steric influences of their 6-R-substituents, with bromides following the order of Ni5 (F) > Ni4 (Cl) > Ni1 (Me) > Ni2 (Et) > Ni3 (iPr) and chlorides following the order of Ni10 (F) > Ni9 (Cl) > Ni6 (Me) > Ni7 (Et) > Ni8 (iPr). DFT calculations revealed the crucial role of agostic interactions (-Ni⋯H-C(Ph2)) between the nickel metal and the hydrogen atom of the ortho bulky group in achieving high catalytic activity and intramolecular hydrogen bonding with the fluoride atom in producing low Mw PE wax. Moreover, the organic compounds and nickel complexes were well characterized, including representative complexes Ni3 and Ni4, via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
