20040005984, Jan 8, 2004

Filed:

Apr 23, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/421219

Inventors:

Anne LaPointe - Sunnyvale CA, US
Margaret Leclerc - Santa Clara CA, US
James Shoemaker - San Jose CA, US

Assignee:

Symyx Technologies, Inc. - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

B01J031/00

US Classification:

502/150000, 502/152000, 502/154000

Abstract:

New ligands, compositions, metal-ligand complexes and arrays with bridged bis-aromatic ligands are disclosed that catalyze the polymerization of monomers into polymers. These catalysts with metal centers have high performance characteristics, including higher comonomer incorporation into ethylene/olefin copolymers, where such olefins are for example, 1-octene, propylene or styrene. The catalysts also polymerize propylene into isotactic polypropylene.
