title: Novel Cr-PNP complexes as catalysts for the trimerisation of ethylene.
abstract: Cr(III) complexes of tridentate PNP ligands have been prepared and evaluated as catalysts for ethylene trimerisation, with several giving high activity and excellent selectivity towards 1-hexene when activated with methylaluminoxane.
