The effects of the type of aluminum co-catalysts and its relative amount, the nature of precursors in terms of ligand backbone and metal center were investigated. The results indicated that precursor I (N,N-dimethyl-2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline nickel (Ⅱ) dichloride) exhibited high activity in propylene dimerization in the presence of the strong Lewis acid Et3Al2Cl3, whereas low productivity by its cobalt analogues was observed under identical reaction conditions.展开更多
