Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an organometallic complex having 3-diketonate ligands that is useful as a catalyst in the polymerization of olefins.

Most of the ( ⁇ -diketonate) 2 M(IV) X 2 complexes adopt the cis-configuration, even though steric factors favor the trans-configuration. The existence of a T ⁇ - electron interaction between the metal and chelate ligand is believed to be a cis-stabilizing electronic factor.
