A new structural subclass of constrained geometry catalysts for the polymerization of olefins /

The sterically expanded octamethyloctahydrodibenzofluorene moiety, C₂₉H₃₈(Oct), has been incorporated into ansa-metallocenes and constrained geometry catalysts(CGC's). Utilization of this sterically expanded version of fluorene has resulted in solidstate anomalies for both systems. The ansa-met...
