综述了烷基铝对α-二亚胺镍催化体系在聚合反应中所产生的影响。甲基铝氧烷(MAO)以其较高的活化能力广泛运用于α-二亚胺镍等催化体系中。三甲基铝(TMA)、三异丁基铝(TiBA)等无氯烷基铝也都有一定的活化能力,但远不如MAO。二乙基氯化铝(DEAC)、倍半乙基氯化铝(EASC)等含氯烷基铝有较强的活化能力,甚至比MAO的活化作用强得多,其中EASC和α-二亚胺镍配合可以使乙烯的聚合速率高达3966 kg PE/(mol Ni.h)。
This contribution reports ethylene polymerization behavior of titanium complexes incorporating bis(phenoxyimine) ligands. Six phenoxy-imine Ti(IV) complexes {6-R^1-2-[CH=N(2,6-difluoro-3,5-diR^2-4-R^3Ph)]C6H30}2TiCl2 (1: R^1 = H, R^2 = H, R^3 = H; 2: R^1 = H, R^2 = H, R%3 = 4-vinylphenyl; 3: R^1 = CH3, R^2 = H, R^3 = H; 4: R^1 = CH3, R^2 = H, R^3 = 4-vinylphenyl; 5: R^1 = CH3, R^2 = F, R^3 = H; 6: R^1 = CH3, R^2 = F, R^3 = 4-vinylphenyl) have been synthesized and evaluated for ethylene polymerization using dried MAO (simplified as DMAO) as cocatalyst. An obvious catalytic heterogeneity of Cat 2 (Complex 2/DMAO) towards ethylene polymerization was observed, which was illustrated by decreased activity, multi- modal molecular weight distribution and partially improved particle morphology comparing with Cat 1. Moreover, Cat 3 exhibits "living" characteristics in the process under certain conditions (25 ~C, less than 20 min). Otherwise, the moderate to high ethylene polymerization activity of ca. 105-106 g PE/(mol Ti'h) and high molecular weight (Mw = 105-106) of polyethylene can be obtained by changing the skeleton structure of these complexes.
