Method for producing alkyl-bridged ligand systems and transition metal compounds

[0001] The present invention relates to a process for preparing alkyl-bridged ligand systems and transition metal compounds. The preparation of metallocenes is known per se (U.S. Pat. No. 4,752,597; U.S. Pat. No. 5,017,714; EP-A-320762; EP-A-416815; EP-A-537686; EP-A-669340; H. H. Brintzinger et al.; Angew. Chem., 107 (1995), 1255; H. H. Brintzinger et al., J. Organomet. Chem. 232 (1982), 233). For this purpose, it is possible, for example, to react indenyl-metal compounds with halides of transition metals such as titanium, zirconium and hafnium.

[0002] Metallocenes can, possibly in combination with one or more cocatalysts, be used as catalyst components for the polymerization and copolymerization of olefins. In particular, halogen-containing metallocenes are used as catalyst precursors which can be converted into a polymerization-active cationic metallocene complex by means of, for example, an aluminoxane (EP-A-129368).

[0003] The polymerization properties of a metallocene compound can be controlled by means of the ligand system. Derivatives of zirconocene dichloride in which the two substituted indenyl groups are joined to one another via a bridge can, owing to their conformational rigidity, be used as catalysts for the stereospecific polymerization of olefins. Variation of this bridge enables the properties of the catalyst and the resulting polymer to be controlled in a targeted manner (Chemical Reviews 2000, Volume 100, Issue 4). Apart from dialkylsilanediyl-bridged metallocenes, ethylidene-bridged metallocenes are also known (DE 19713549).

[0004] Although a number of synthetic routes have been described for preparing simple carbon-bridged ligand systems bearing a few substituents, these cannot be applied to the preparation of highly substituted bisindenyl ligands.

[0005] A further difficulty in the synthesis of carbon-bridged, highly substituted metallocenes is the metallation of the ligand. The synthesis of these complexes is thus complicated and gives poor yields, which leads directly to increased costs and to limited commercial utility.

[0006] Chem. Ber. 1994, 127, 2417-2419, describes the synthesis of 1,2-bis(fluorenyl)-1-phenylethanezirconium dichloride. This unsubstituted alkyl-bridged metal complex is obtained in a yield of 13%.

[0007] Organometallics 1992, 11, 1869-1876, describes the synthesis of 2,3-butylene-1,1′-bis(indenyl)zirconium dichloride. This metal complex unsubstituted on the indenyl ligand is obtained in a yield of 18%.

[0008] It is an object of the present invention to find a new synthetic route to this class of compounds which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art described and gives the desired compounds in better yields.

[0009] We have found that this object is achieved by preparing the ligand systems from highly substituted indene derivatives and alternative bridging reagents, which gives good yields. The use of an alternative metal source leads to the target compounds in high yields and purities. The synthetic route described here gives a high total yield and high purities.

[0010] The present invention accordingly provides a process for preparing compounds of the formula I:

The compound of the formula II is preferably present in dissolved form or as a suspension. One or more compounds of the formula III can subsequently be added.

Suitable solvents are both polar aprotic solvents (cycloalkyl ethers, dialkyl ethers, alkyl aryl ethers, diaryl ethers) e.g. dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, dipropyl ether, diisopropyl ether, di-n-butyl ether, di-s-butyl ether, di-t-butyl ether, t-butyl methyl ether, dimethoxyethane, diethoxyethane, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, anisole, diphenyl ether etc., and also nonpolar aprotic solvents (aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons), e.g. n-pentane, isopentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, cyclohexane, isododecane, n-octane, n-nonane, n-decane, petroleum ether, toluene, benzene, o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene, 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 1,2,5-trimethylbenzene, 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, ethylbenzene, propylbenzene, etc., and mixtures of these. The compounds are initially charged at from −100° C. to 300° C., preferably from −78° C. to 100° C., particularly preferably at from −40° C. to 40° C. The compound of the formula VII is preferably present in dissolved form or as a suspension. One or more compounds of the formula VIII can subsequently be added. These can likewise be dissolved or suspended in a solvent or can be used as such. Suitable solvents are those described above or mixtures thereof.

[0083] The addition can be carried out over a period of from 1 minute to up to 96 hours. Addition over a period of from 10 minutes to 8 hours is preferred. The temperature of the initial charge during the addition is from −100° C. to 200° C., preferably from −80° C. to 150° C., particularly preferably from −40° C. to 40° C. The temperature is selected so that at least one reactant is present in a liquid phase. The subsequent reaction temperature is preferably from −40° C. to 100° C. Furthermore, the reaction can be carried out at atmospheric pressure but can also be carried out at superatmospheric pressure, although this requires appropriate reactors. The stoichiometric ratio in which the compounds of the formulae VII and VIII are combined is from 1:10 to 1:0.1. Preference is given to a stoichiometric ratio of the compounds of the formulae VII and VIII of from 1:5 to 1:0.5. Particular preference is given to a stoichiometric ratio of the compounds of the formula VII to the compounds of the formula VIII of 1:1. The reaction can be carried out either in the order described here or in the reverse order, i.e. by addition of compounds of the formula VII in dissolved form, in suspension or as such to compounds of the formula VIII in dissolved form, in suspension or as such. In the latter case, the reaction conditions are analogous to those described here.

[0084] The reaction of a compound of the formula VII with a compound of the formula VIII gives a transition metal compound of the formula I.

[0085] Preference is given to compounds of the formula I in which the respective radicals R1 and also the respective radicals R3 are identical.

[1143] The metallocenes prepared according to the present invention are highly active catalyst components for olefin polymerization. Depending on the substitution pattern of the ligands, the metallocenes can be obtained as mixtures of isomers. For the polymerization, the metallocenes are preferably used as pure isomers, but the use of the racemate is sufficient in most cases. The metallocenes prepared by the process of the present invention can also be used as catalysts in organic synthesis, in which case the pure enantiomers are preferably used.

[1144] The metal complexes of the formula I prepared by the process of the present invention are particularly suitable as constituents of catalyst systems for preparing polyolefins by polymerization of at least one olefin in the presence of a catalyst comprising at least one cocatalyst and at least one metal complex.

[1145] The cocatalyst which together with a metal complex of the formula I forms the catalyst system comprises at least one compound such as an aluminoxane or Lewis acid or ionic compound which reacts with a metal complex to convert it into a cationic compound.

[1146] Examples of such cocatalysts are described in DE 19962905.

[1147] The cocatalyst and/or the metal complex can be in unsupported or supported form. Examples of supported cocatalysts and/or supported metal complexes are described in DE 19962905.

[1148] The support component of the catalyst system can be any organic or inorganic, inert solid, in particular a porous support such as talc, inorganic oxides and finely divided polymer powders (e.g. polyolefins). Examples of suitable support materials and methods of application to the support are described in DE 19962905.

[1149] For the purposes of the present invention, the term polymerization encompasses both homopolymerization and copolymerization.

[1150] Preference is given to polymerizing olefins of the formula Rm—CH═CH—Rn, where Rm and Rn are identical or different and are each a hydrogen atom or a carbon-containing radical having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, in particular from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and Rm and Rn together with the atoms connecting them may form one or more rings. Examples of such olefins are described in DE 19962905.

[1151] The polymerization is carried out at from 0 to 300° C., preferably from 50 to 200° C., very particularly preferably 50-80° C. The pressure is from 0.5 to 2000 bar, preferably from 5 to 64 bar.

[1152] The polymerization can be carried out in solution, in bulk, in suspension or in the gas phase, continuously or batchwise, in one or more stages. Examples of suitable polymerization processes are described in DE 19962905.

[1153] If required, hydrogen is added as molar mass regulator and/or to increase the activity.

[1154] The catalyst system can be introduced into the polymerization system in pure form or can, to enable it to be metered more readily, be admixed with inert components such as paraffins, oils or waxes. In addition, an antistatic can be introduced into the polymerization system either together with or separately from the catalyst system used.

[1155] In the process of the present invention, the use of a specific bridging reagent of the formula V gives multiply substituted ligand systems of the formula VI in high yields and purities, thus opening up an efficient route to transition metal complexes of the formula I.

[1156] The invention is illustrated by the following, nonlimiting examples.

[1157] General procedures: Preparation and handling of organometallic compounds were carried out in the absence of air and moisture under argon (Schlenk technique or glove box). All solvents required were purged with argon and dried over molecular sieves before use. 1,2-Bistrifluoromethylsulfonyloxyethane was synthesized as described by Lindner, Ekkehard; Au, Guenter von; Eberle, Hans-Juergen; Chem.Ber.; 114; 2; 1981; 810-813. The preparations of 1,3-bistrifluoromethylsulfonyloxypropane and 1,2-bistrifluoromethylsulfonyloxycyclohexane were carried out analogously. The indenes used were prepared as described in WO 9840331.
