Description




TECHNICAL FIELD




This invention relates to new metallocene compounds useful as a catalyst component for olefin polymerization. More particularly, the invention relates to metallocene compounds consisting of complex compounds wherein a cycloalkadienyl ring-containing multidentate compound substituted on the ring by a heteroaromatic group containing an oxygen, a sulfur or a nitrogen atom is coordinated to a Group VIB transition metal atom and also to the processes for the preparation thereof.




Further, the invention relates to catalysts for olefin polymerization containing said metallocene compounds and processes for the production of olefin polymers using them.




BACKGROUND ART




As a catalyst substituted for Ziegler-Natta catalysts which have been used in the polymerization of olefins, a part of the metallocene compounds is being used which consist of a complex compound wherein a multidentate compound containing a π-electron donor such as unsubstituted or substituted cycloalkadienyl groups is coordinated to a transition metal atom, the unsubstituted or substituted cycloalkadienyl groups including e.g., unsubstituted or substituted cyclopentadienyl groups, unsubstituted or substituted indenyl groups, unsubstituted or substituted tetrahydroindenyl groups, and unsubstituted or substituted fluorenyl groups.




In recent years, various metallocene compounds have been proposed having higher olefin polymerization activity per mole of a transition metal atom. It is known that the polymers of α-olefin having 3 or more carbon atoms, in particular, propylene polymers, prepared by using a chiral metallocene compound have high stereoregularity, the chiral metallocene compound being the compound wherein a multidentate compound having two substituted cycloalkadienyl groups bonded with a divalent linking group is coordinated to a transition metal atom (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1998, 120, 11316-11322).




Further, the development of metallocene compounds with high olefin polymerization activity has continued. Various metallocene compounds have been proposed wherein a heteroatom is introduced into the substituent or cycloalkadiene ring in the substituted cycloalkadienyl group.




For instance, Japanese Patent Kokai 7-258282 discloses metallocene compounds wherein the 2-position of the indenyl group is substituted by a saturated group containing a heteroatom such as nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth or the like, specifically those wherein 2-pyrrolidino-1-indene is linked through a divalent linking group and coordinated to a transition metal atom.




Japanese Patent Kokai 8-183814 discloses chiral metallocene compounds wherein the 4-position of the indenyl group is substituted by unsubstituted or substituted 1-pyrrolyl group, 1-indolyl group or the like, specifically those wherein 4-(1-indolyl)-2-methylindene is linked through a divalent linking group and coordinated to a transition metal atom.




J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1998, 120, 10786-10787 discloses metallocene compounds wherein a heteroatom-containing cycloalkadiene having a thiophene ring or a pyrrol ring condensed to a cyclopentadiene ring is linked through a divalent linking group and coordinated to a transition metal atom.




DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION




As mentioned above, there are various proposals for introducing a heteroatom into a π-electron donor. Except for the compounds disclosed in Japanese Patent Kokai 8-183814, however, the metallocene compounds are not known wherein the substituted cycloalkadienyl group-containing compounds having a heteroaromatic group containing an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom on a cycloalkadiene ring, particularly on the 5-membered ring thereof are coordinated to a transition metal atom.

Usually, the resultant reaction mixture to which water has been added, is allowed to stand to separate into an organic layer and a water layer, thus obtaining the bis-substituted cycloalkadiene as an organic layer. The bis-substituted cycloalkadiene can be used as it is in the form of a resulting solution for the subsequent step, but usually used after separation from the solution. As the method of separating the bis-substituted cycloalkadiene from the solution can be employed, for example, the method wherein the solvent is distilled off. The separated cycloalkadiene is further purified by recrystallization, distillation, column chromatography or the like, and may be further separated into the racemic and meso forms, and each form may be further purified and used for the subsequent step.




The bis-substituted cycloalkadiene as prepared above is reacted with a metal salt type base to anionize each 5-membered ring, thereby forming the dianion represented by formula (4Ba), and then this bis-substituted cycloalkadiene dianion is reacted with the transition metal compound represented by formula (7) to achieve an intramolecular linkage for ring closure, thus forming a mixture of the racemic and meso forms of the metallocene compound represented by said formula (2A).




Finally, each of the racemic and meso forms of the metallocene compounds is isolated from the above-mentioned reaction solution in the usual way and purified to obtain the racemic and meso metallocene compounds. Isolation and purification of the racemic and meso metallocene compounds can be effected by distilling the solvent off, if necessary, extraction with a suitable solvent, adsorption, filtration, recrystallization or the like. Usually, each compound is crystallized out by utilizing the difference in solubility of the compound in a solvent and then purified by recrystallization or the like.

Example 5




Synthesis of dimethylsilylenebis[2-(2-furyl)-indenyl]-zirconium dichloride (Compound No. 424)




(a1) Synthesis of 2-(2-furyl)-indene




A 500 ml glass reaction vessel was charged with 4.7 g (0.069 mol) of furan and 100 ml of THF and cooled to −50° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath. To the mixture were added dropwise 48 ml (0.073 mmol) of an n-butyllithium/hexane solution of 1.52 mol/l. After the addition was completed, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 3 hrs. The mixture was again cooled to −30° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath and 100 ml of a THF solution containing 9.1 g (0.069 mol) of 2-indanone were added dropwise. After the addition was completed, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 16 hrs.




The reaction solution was cooled to −20° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath and 10 ml of 2N-hydrochloric acid were added dropwise. This reaction solution was transferred into a separatory funnel and washed with a brine until it was neutral. Anhydrous sodium sulfate was added and the solution was allowed to stand overnight and dried. Anhydrous sodium sulfate was filtered off and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue with a silica gel column gave 3.2 g (25% yield) of 2-(2-furyl)-indene as colorless crystals. The structure was identified by NMR.




(a2) Synthesis of dimethylbis[2-(2-furyl)-indenyl] silane




A 200 ml glass reaction vessel was charged with 1.3 g (0.0070 mol) of 2-(2-furyl)-indene as synthesized above, 0.09 g (0.001 mol) of copper cyanide and 30 ml of THF and cooled to −50° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath. To the mixture were added dropwise 5.2 ml (0.0079 mmol) of an n-butyllithium/hexane solution of 1.52 mol/l. After the addition was completed, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 16 hrs. The mixture was again cooled to −50° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath and 20 ml of THF solution containing 0.5 g (0.0039 mol) of dimethyl dichlorosilane were added dropwise. After the addition was completed, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 16 hrs.




To the reaction solution was added distilled water. This reaction solution was transferred into a separatory funnel and washed with brine until it was neutral. Anhydrous sodium sulfate was added and the solution was allowed to stand overnight and dried. Anhydrous sodium sulfate was filtered off and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue with a silica gel column gave 1.1 g (72% yield) of dimethylbis[2-(2-furyl)-indenyl] silane as light green crystals.




(b) Synthesis of dimethylsilylenebis[2-(2-furyl)-indenyl]-zirconium dichloride




A 100 ml glass reaction vessel was charged with 1.1 g (0.0025 mol) of dimethylbis[2-(2-furyl)-indenyl] silane as synthesized above and 30 ml of THF and cooled to −50° C. on a dry ice/methanol bath. To the mixture were added dropwise 3.6 ml (0.0055 mmol) of an n-butyllithium/hexane solution of 1.52 mol/l. After the addition was completed, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 16 hrs. The solvent in the reaction solution was distilled off under reduced pressure, 10 ml of dichloromethane were added, and the reaction solution was solidified with liquid nitrogen, to which were added 30 ml of a dichloromethane suspension containing 0.6 g (0.0026 mol) of tetrachloro-zirconium. Subsequently, the mixture was raised to room temperature and stirred for 16 hrs. A part of the reaction solution was withdrawn and determined by
