โฆ Synopsis
This review covers research in olefin polymerization by metallocene catalysts published in 1996. While metallocenes are generally defined as metal complexes with two cyclopentadienyl rings, this review will additionally cover catalysts containing only one cyclopentadienyl ring, as well as catalysts with ligands isolobal to cyclopentadienide. Included will be certain disclosures concerning cocatalyst preparation and use. Polymer properties and uses will not be covered.

Papers, patents, and published patent applications from 1997 on olefin polymerization by single-site catalysts and processes in which they are used are reviewed. Included are disclosures on cocatalyst preparation, and the copolymerization of a-olefins and carbon monoxide by metal complexes.
Metallacyclic metallocene complexes of titanium, zirconium and hafnium can be prepared by hydrogen elimination processes of suitable substituents such as -phenylalkyl or -alkenyl at the aromatic ligands. In some cases, the intermediates containing agostic hydride ligands can be isolated and characte
