Title SUPERACTIVE AND STEREOSPECIFIC CATALYSTS. IV. INFLUENCE OF STRUCTURE OF ESTERS ON MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE-SUPPORTED OLEFIN POLYMERISATION CATALYSTS

Abstract CH-type catalysts were prepared by reacting MgC12.ROH, where ROH was 2-ethylhexanol(EH), (R)-2-octanol(R-2O) and (S)-2-octanol(S-2O), with titanium tetrachloride in the presence of diisobutyl phthalate (BP) , diisobutyl terephthalate(BT), (-)-dimenthyl phthalate(MP) or (-) -dimenthyl terephthalate(MT). The CH(EH,BP) catalyst was found to be five times more active than the CH(EH,MT) catalysts and to produce PP which was 97% isotactic, as compared with 84.7% for the latter. The catalysts derived from 2-octanols were much less active than the corresponding catalysts prepared with EH due to lack of reactivity with phthalic anhydride which permitted excessive incorporation of titanium tetrachloride to form non-stereospecific catalytic sites as well as inactive Ti species. 11 refs.
