title: Synthesis of [(π-cyano-P-nacnac)Cp] and [(π-cyano-nacnac)Cp]-zirconium complexes, and their remote activation for ethylene polymerization.
abstract: In this contribution the synthesis and characterization of two distinct, yet similar, zirconium complexes, [(π-P-nacnac-CN)Cp] and [(π-nacnac-CN)Cp] zirconium dichloride were discussed. In addition to the complexes, Lewis acid adducts [B(C(6)F(5))(3)] of the complexes were isolated and characterized as well. It was found that while structurally similar, the complexes behave distinctly upon adduct formation and in their ethylene polymerizations.
