Abstract
Four newly synthesized bridged bisindenyl zirconocenes which are deriv atives of known structures have been tested in polymerizations of liqu id propylene with methylaluminoxane as cocatalyst. They include two as ymmetric and two binuclear systems which are suitable for isotactic po lymerization. Surprising differences from the behavior of similar syst ems (regiospecificity, chain termination) are found and discussed. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
