S. Daniele et al., meta- and para-bis[zirconyl(IV)amino]cyclophanes; 1,3- or 1,4-C6H4[(N)over-bar(SiMe3)](2) as bridging ligands, CHEM COMMUN, (18), 1999, pp. 1909-1910
The structurally characterised meta- and para-dimetallacyclophanes [RN(C6H4
)N(R)Zr(NMe2)(2)N(R)(C6H4)N(R)Zr- (NMe2)(2)] (R = SiMe3), obtained from [{Z
r(NMe2)(3)(mu-NMe2)}(2)] and C6H4[N(H)R](2)-1,3 or -1,4 (2 mol), are cataly
sts (with methylaluminoxane) for the polymerisation of ethylene.
