为了研究茂环上的苄基对双核茂金属催化行为的影响,合成了含有苄基的桥连双核茂金属[(η5-C5H5)TiCl2η5-(C6H5)C(Me)2(C5H3)]2[μμ-1,4-(CH22(C6H4)][(TiBz2],通过1HNMR、13C NMR、质谱和元素分析进行了表征,确认了化学结构.在甲基铝氧烷(MAO)助催化作用下(TiBz2催化乙烯聚合得到C(4)支链的聚乙烯,C(4)支链源自于苄基苯环弱作用效应导致的乙烯三聚产生的1-己烯对聚乙烯插入.该催化体系具有很好的共聚能力,催化乙烯与1-己烯共聚时,聚合物中1-己烯插入率高达13.7 mol%,且形成交替共聚片段结构.对其特殊的催化循环机理进行了探讨,苄基苯环与中心金属弱相互作用导致1-己烯与乙烯分子交替插入得到己烯乙烯交替共聚(HEHE)片段,聚合物较窄的分子量分布(PDI=2.23)表明,在聚合过程中两个金属中心产生了强烈的协同效应,使其共聚能力大幅度提高.

In order to study the effect of the benzyl benzene ring on the catalytic behavior of binuclear metallocene, the binuclear metallocene [μ,μ-1,4-(CH2)2(C6H4)] [(η5-C5H5)TiCl2(η5-(C6H5)C(Me)2(C5H3)]2 [(TiBz)2] is synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectra and elemental analysis. When combined with methylaluminoxane (MAO), the (TiBz)2/MAO system catalyzed ethylene polymerization and the polymer with C(4) branch were obtained. It is suggested that the C(4) branch is from the ethylene trimerization by the weak effect between the benzyl and center metal. The (TiBz)2/MAO system also showed great ability for ethylene copolymerization with 1-hexene and the incorporation of 1-hexene in polymer reached up to 13.7 mol%. The 13C NMR result of polymer showed that the polymer contained alternatively copolymerized HEHE fragment and the possible mechanism is presented for explaining the special catalytic behavior. It is the weak effect between the benzyl and center metal that led to the alternative insertion of ethylene and 1-hexene, and the narrow molecular weight distribution (PDI=2.23) meant that there could be a great synergistic effect between the two activate center metals in the polymerization process, which greatly increased the copolymerization capability.
