This invention relates to a ligand compound containing a benzylamide group, a
metal complex, a
metal-supported catalyst, and their applications, belonging to the field of catalytic
olefin polymerization and synthesis of high-molecular-weight polyolefins. The ligand compound has the
structural formula shown in Formula I, wherein R2, R3, R4, and R5 are independently selected from C1 to C5. 10 The
alkyl group, substituted or unsubstituted diphenylmethyl group, and
hydrogen are all selected from the group; R1 and R6 are simultaneously selected from the group consisting of methoxy, hydroxyl, and
sodium oxyalkylene substituents; when there are substituents on the diphenylmethyl group, the substituents are selected from hydroxyl, C1 to C6. 10
Alkyl groups, C1-C 10 alkoxy groups, C2-C 10 Any of the alkenyl groups. This invention links the R1 and R6 groups to the
benzene-2,000 skeleton, so that during subsequent loading, the R1 and R6 groups can form strong
hydrogen bond interactions with the
hydrogen atoms on the support. Combined with the steric hindrance effect regulated by the
benzene-2,000 skeleton, the subsequently prepared
metal-supported catalyst has better catalytic performance.
