A series of half-sandwich group IV metal complexes with tridentate monoanionic phenoxy-imine arylsulfide [O-NS] ligand [2-Bu^t4-Me-6-（（2-（SC6H5）C6H4N = CHC6H2O）]- （La） and dianionic phenoxy-amine arylsulfide [O...A series of half-sandwich group IV metal complexes with tridentate monoanionic phenoxy-imine arylsulfide [O-NS] ligand [2-Bu^t4-Me-6-（（2-（SC6H5）C6H4N = CHC6H2O）]- （La） and dianionic phenoxy-amine arylsulfide [O-N-S] ligand [2-Bu^t4-Me-6-（（2-（SC6H5）C6H4N-CH2C6H2O）]2- （Lb） have been synthesized and characterized. Lb was obtained easily in high yield by reduction of ligand La with excess LiAlH4 in cool diethyl ether. Half-sandwich Group Ⅳ metal complexes CpTi[O-NS]Cl2 （1a）, CpZr[O-NS]Cl2 （1b）, CpTi[O-N-S]Cl （2a）, CpZr[O-N-S]Cl （2b） and CpZr[O-N-S]Cl （2c） were synthesized by the reactions of La and Lb with CpTiCl3, CpZrCl3 and Cp ZrCl3, and characterized by IR, ^1H-NMR, ^13C-NMR and elemental analysis. In addition, an X-ray structure analysis was performed on ligand Lb. The title Group IV half-sandwich bearing tridentate [O,N,S] ligands show good catalytic activities for ethylene polymerization in the presence of methylaluminoxane （MAO） as co-catalyst up to 1.58 × 10^7 g-PE.mol-Zr-1.h-1. The good catalytic activities can be maintained even at high temperatures such as 100 ℃ exhibiting the excellent thermal stability for these half-sandwich metal pre-catalysts.展开更多
