Early-transition-metal catalysts with phenoxy-imine-type ligands for the oligomerization of ethylene.
Early-transition-metal complexes incorporating phenoxy-imine-type bidentate and tridentate ligands, after activation, can achieve selective as well as nonselective ethylene oligomerization to produce 1-hexene, linear α-olefins, and vinyl-terminated low-molecular-weight polyethylenes, all with high efficiency.
