Abstract

Abstract A polymer bound ligand represented by the formula QM(R) m and process for preparing same are provided, wherein Q is a polystyrene, M is Si, C, Ge, Sn, P, or N, each R is a that at least one R is a cyclopentadienyl-type compound, and m is 2 or 3, said process comprising reacting a metallated polystyrene and an organohalide compound, wherein the polystyrene is metallated with an alkali metal, and wherein said organohalide compound is represented by the formula XM(R) m wherein X is a halide. Other aspects of the present invention include a polymer bound metallocene represented by the formula QM(R) m ZY n and a process for preparing same, wherein Z is a transition metal, Y is a halide, methyl, hydrogen, or a cyclopentadienyl-type group, and n is 2 or 3. Other aspects of the present invention include a catalyst system comprising the polymer bound metallocene and an organoaluminoxane, a method for preparing same, and a polymerization process employing the catalyst system.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 142 words
A process for preparing a polymer bound ligand useful as a metallocene catalyst component, said process comprising: reacting a metallated polystyrene and an organohalide compound; wherein said polystyrene is metallated with an alkali metal; wherein said organohalide compound is represented by the formula XM(R) m wherein X is a halide, M is Si, C, Ge, Sn, P, or N, wherein each R is a hydrocarbyl group independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, and cyclopentadienyl-type groups containing 1 to 36 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one R group is a cyclopentadienyl-type group, wherein said cyclopentadienyl-type groups are cyclopentadienyl, substituted cyclopentadienyl, indenyl, substituted indenyl, fluorenyl, or substituted fluorenyl, wherein the substituents include hydrocarbyl groups containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkoxy groups containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or halide, and wherein m is 2 or 3.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 142 words
A process for preparing a polymer bound ligand useful as a metallocene catalyst component, said process comprising: reacting a metallated polystyrene and an organohalide compound; wherein said polystyrene is metallated with an alkali metal; wherein said organohalide compound is represented by the formula XM(R) m wherein X is a halide, M is Si, C, Ge, Sn, P, or N, wherein each R is a hydrocarbyl group independently selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, and cyclopentadienyl-type groups containing 1 to 36 carbon atoms, with the proviso that at least one R group is a cyclopentadienyl-type group, wherein said cyclopentadienyl-type groups are cyclopentadienyl, substituted cyclopentadienyl, indenyl, substituted indenyl, fluorenyl, or substituted fluorenyl, wherein the substituents include hydrocarbyl groups containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alkoxy groups containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, or halide, and wherein m is 2 or 3.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
