Heterogeneous catalytic component obtainable by reacting a porous inorganic support with a
metallocene compound characterized in that the
metallocene compound is defined by the following general formulas: (LRk)z[LRk-f(RIOH)f]xMXy I wherein: L, equal to or different from each other, is selected from the group comprising: cyclopentadienyl, indenyl, tetrahydroindenyl, fluorenyl, octahydrofluorenyl or benzoindenyl; each R is independently selected from
hydrogen, C1-C20
alkyl, C3-C20 cycloalkyl, C6-C20
aryl, C3-C20 alkenyl, C7-C20 arylalkyl, C7-C20 alkylaryl, C8-C20 arylalkenyl, linear or branched, optionally substituted by 1 to 10
halogen atoms, or a group SiRII3; each RI equal to or different from each other is a
divalent aliphatic or
aromatic hydrocarbon group containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, optionally containing from 1 to 5 heteroatoms of groups 14 to 16 of the
periodic table of the elements and
boron; each Q is independently selected from B, C, Si, Ge, Sn; M is a
metal of group 3, 4 or 10 of the
Periodic Table,
Lanthanide or
Actinide; each X is independently selected from:
hydrogen,
chlorine,
bromine, ORII, NRII2, C1-C20
alkyl or C6-C20
aryl; each RII is independently selected from C1-C20
alkyl, C3-C20 cycloalkyl, C6-C20
aryl, C3-C20 alkenyl, C7-C20 arylalkyl, C7-C20 arylalkenyl or alkylaryl, linear or branched; RII is methyl, ethyl,
isopropyl; L' is N or O; when L is cyclopentadienyl k is equal to 5, when L is indenyl k is equal to 7, when L is fluorenyl or benzoindenyl k is equal to 9, when L is tetrahydroindenyl k is equal to 11 and when L is octahydrofluorenyl, k is equal to 17; z is equal to 0, 1 or 2; x is equal to 1, 2 or 3; y is equal to 1, 2 or 3; x+y+z is equal to the valence of M; m is an integer which can assume the values 1, 2, 3 or 4; a and b are integers whose value ranges from 0 to k-1; f is an integer whose value ranges from 1 to k; g is 0 or 1; c and e are equal to 0 or 1; a+b+c is
