Here we report that the tri-1-adamantylphosphine-nickel complex [AdPNiBr][AdPH] upon activation with an alkylaluminoxane catalyzes the polymerization of ethylene to ultrahigh-molecular-weight, nearly linear polyethylene (M up to 1.68 × 10 g mol) with initial activities reaching 3.7 million turnovers per h at 10 °C. Copolymerizations of ethylene with α-olefins such as 1-hexene and 1-octadecene, as well as tert-butyldimethyl(dec-9-en-1-yloxy)silane give the corresponding copolymers with no decrease in activity.
在这里,我们报告三(1-金刚烷基)膦-镍配合物 [AdPNiBr][AdPH] 在烷基铝氧烷的活化下,催化乙烯聚合生成超高分子量、近乎线性的聚乙烯(M 高达 1.68×106gmol),在 10°C 时初始活性达到 370 万转化数/小时。乙烯与α-烯烃如 1-己烯和 1-十八烯,以及叔丁基二甲基(癸-9-烯-1-基氧基)硅烷的共聚反应,活性没有降低,得到相应的共聚物。
