Patent ID: 7005525

Claim:
An organometallic complex comprising: a catalyst containing a transition metal, at least a ligand and a component having the formula GAr F , wherein Ar F is an aromatic ring system selected from the group consisting of phenyl, naphthalenyl, anthracenyl, fluorenyl, and indenyl, said aromatic ring system having at least a substituent selected from the group consisting of fluorine, hydrogen, hydrocarbyl and fluorinated hydrocarbyl, G is substituted or unsubstituted (CH 2 ) n or (CF 2 ) n , wherein n is from 1 to 30, wherein further one or more CH 2 or CF 2 groups are optionally replaced by NR, PR, SiR 2 , BR, O or S, and R is hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl, GAr F being covalently bonded to either said transition metal or said ligand of said catalyst, thereby rendering said cationic organometallic complex liquid.
