Copolymerizations of ethylene with norbornene (NBE), cyclopentene (CPE) and 1-hexene by (arylimido)(aryloxo)vanadium(V) complexes of the type VCl2(N-2,6-Me2C6H3)(OAr) [Ar = 2,6-Me2C6H3 (1), 2,6-iPr2C6H3 (2), 2,6-Ph2C6H3 (3)] with cocatalyst [methylaluminoxane (MAO) or Et2AlCl] catalyst systems have been explored. These complexes exhibited remarkable catalytic activities for ethylene polymerization in the presence of Et2AlCl cocatalyst; in particular, the resultant polyethylene prepared by 1 possessed narrow molecular weight distributions and the Mn value increased linearly upon increasing the polymer yields (TON values). Notable effects of Al cocatalyst have been observed in the copolymerization of ethylene with NBE: the catalytic activities, the NBE incorporation, dominant chain transfer reactions, and the Mn values for resultant copolymers were highly dependent upon the Al cocatalyst employed (MAO or Et2AlCl). The 1−Et2AlCl catalyst system exhibited remarkable catalytic activities, affording ultrahigh ...
