Abstract
Stereospecific polymerization and asymmetric oligomerization of allyls ilanes were investigated by using C2- and C-s-symmetric zirconocene ca talysts. Isotactic and syndiotactic poly(allylsilane)s were produced w ith ethylenebis(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-indenyl)zirconium dichloride (1) and ta(5)-cyclopentadienyl)(eta(5)-fluorenyl)zirconium dichloride (6), respectively. Bulky allylsilanes afforded optically active oligomers in the reactions using optically active ethylenebis(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro -1-indenyl)zirconium and -hafnium complexes.
