Embodiment 1

[0070] Embodiment 1, dichloro cyclopentadienyl (tetrahydroindenyl) zirconium Cp (H 4 Ind)ZrCl 2 preparation of

[0071] To a yellow solution of cyclopentadienyl(indenyl)zirconium dichloride (2.00 g, 5.84 mmol) in dichloromethane (40 mL) was added PtO 2 (0.20 g, 10 wt%), a stained yellow mixture was obtained. Stir the mixture with 80 psi H 2 Pressurize. Using 80psi H 2 After stirring for 2 hours, the solution was almost colorless. The hydrogen was then evacuated, and the reaction was filtered through Celite to obtain a black solid and a pale straw yellow solution. The solution was evaporated in vacuo to leave a white solid. Yield 1.69 g (84%). 1 H NMR (CD 2 Cl 2 ): δ1.60-1.81 (m, 4H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 2.50-2.59 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 2.76-2.85 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 5.80 (m, 2H, H 4 Cp-H of Ind), 6.37 (m, 1H, H 4 Cp-H) of Ind, 6.44 (s, 5H, Cp).

Embodiment 2

[0073] Example 2, dichlorocyclopentadienyl (1-methyltetrahydroindenyl) zirconium Cp (1-MeH 4 Ind)ZrCl 2 preparation of

[0074] To Cp(1-MeInd)ZrCl 2 (1.07g, 3.00mmol) bright yellow solution in dichloromethane (25mL) was added PtO 2 (0.10 g, 10 wt%), a stained yellow mixture was obtained. Stir the mixture with 80 psi H 2 Pressurize. Using 80psi H 2 After stirring for 45 minutes, the solution was gray-black. The hydrogen was then evacuated, and the reaction was filtered through celite to obtain a black solid and a light green solution. The solution was evaporated in vacuo to leave a white solid. Yield 0.95 g (88%). 1 H NMR (CD 2 Cl 2 ): δ1.60-1.78 (m, 4H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 1.96(s, 3H, Me), 2.34-2.56(m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 2.72-2.82 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 5.69 (d, 1H, H 4 Cp-H of Ind), 6.14(d, 1H, H 4 Cp-H) of Ind, 6.41 (s, 5H, Cp).

Embodiment 3

[0077] Example 3, dichloro (1,3-dimethylcyclopentadienyl) (tetrahydroindenyl) zirconium (1,3-Me 2 Cp)(H 4 Ind)ZrCl 2 preparation of

[0078] To (1,3-Me 2 Cp)IndZrCl 2 (0.80g, 2.16mmol) to a yellow solution in dichloromethane (20mL) was added PtO 2 (0.08 g, 10 wt%), a stained yellow mixture was obtained. Stir the mixture with 80 psi H 2 Pressurize. Using 80psi H 2 After stirring for 40 minutes, the solution was gray-black. The hydrogen was then evacuated and the reaction was filtered through celite to obtain a black solid and a colorless solution. The solution was evaporated in vacuo to leave a white solid. The solid was washed with pentane (3 x 10ml) and dried in vacuo. , yield 0.74 g (92%) of a white solid. 1 H NMR (CD 2 Cl 2 ): δ1.52-1.65 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 1.72-1.90 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 2.18(s, 3H, Me), 2.52-2.60(m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 2.77-2.86 (m, 2H, H 4 H on the ring of Ind, 5.73 (d, 2H), 6.31 (d, 2H), 6.07 (t, 1H)...

Abstract

The invention provides a catalyst system and a method of making polyethylene using the catalyst system, the method comprising combining ethylene; an activator; and a metallocene catalyst compound; wherein in one embodiment the metallocene catalyst compound is selected from: wherein M is a Group 4 atom; X is a leaving group; n is an integer from 0 to 3; and R1 to R12 are independently selected from hydrides, halogens, hydroxy, C1 to C6 alkoxys, C1 to C6 alkenyls, and C1 to C10 alkyls; characterized in that when the comonomer is 1-hexene, and the mole ratio of 1-hexene to ethylene combined is varied between 0.015 to 0.05, the density of the resultant polyethylene changes by less than 5% and the I21 / I2 varies from 10 to 150.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to a class of metallocenes that can be used to polymerize ethylene in the presence of comonomers to produce polyethylenes with low comonomer incorporation while having a sufficient ability to control the rheological properties of the polyethylene. Background of the invention [0002] Metallocene catalyst compounds, ie, those containing a metal center bound to at least one Cp (cyclopentadienyl and isolobal ligand to cyclopentadienyl), are useful catalysts for the production of polyethylene. Metallocene-produced polyethylene has many end-use applications such as films, impact products, cookware, and more. Each of these end-use articles requires polyolefin resins with different properties (density, flow properties, etc.). In the production of polyethylene it is often desirable to maintain certain useful resin properties while changing others advantageously. For example, it is often desirable to produce polyethylene copol...
