Abstract:
A catalyst composition comprising a Group 3-10 metal complex and an activator compound corresponding to the formula: AlArfQ1Q2; where:Arf is a fluorinated aromatic hydrocarbyl moiety of from 6 to 30 carbon atoms; Q1 is Arf or a C1-20 hydrocarbyl group, or a C1-20 hydrocarbyl group substituted with one or more cyclohydrocarbyl, hydrocarbyloxy, hydrocarbylsiloxy, hydrocarbylsilylamino, hydrocarbylsilyl, silylhydrocarbyl, di(hydrocarbylsilyl)amino, hydrocarbylamino, di(hydrocarbyl)amino, di(hydrocarbyl)phosphino, or hydrocarbylsulfido groups having from 1 to 20 atoms other than hydrogen, or such substituent groups may be covalently linked with each other to form one or more fused rings or ring systems; and Q2 is an aryloxy, arylsulfideo or di(hydrocarbyl)amido group, or such group substituted with one or more hydrocarbyl, cyclohydrocarbyl, hydrocarbyloxy, hydrocarbylsiloxy, hydrocarbylsilylamino, hydrocarbylsilyl, silylhydrocarbyl, di(hydrocarbylsilyl)amino, hydrocarbylamino, di(hydrocarbyl)amino, di(hydrocarbyl)phosphino, or hydrocarbylsulfido groups having from 1 to 20 atoms other than hydrogen, or such substituent groups may be covalently linked with each other to form one or more fused rings or ring systems, said Q2 having from 3 to 20 atoms other than hydrogen.
