Abstract
Substituents in the positions 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the fluorenylidene frag ment clearly influence the polymerization behaviour of the syndiospeci fic catalyst systems (C(13)H(8-n)R(n)CR(2)'C5H4)ZrCl2/MAO (n = 1, 2; R = alkyl, aryl; R' = Me, Ph). We report seven new catalyst precursors of this type, including first polymerization results. An X-ray study o f the 4,5-dimethyl derivative 10b explains the reduced activity and st ereospecifity of this catalyst.
