Abstract

AbstractThe synthesis and characterization of a novel titanium complex, {[C5(CH3)5]ClTi}2O2C2(CH3)4(µ‐O) (2), which has two titanium metal centers linked by heteroleptic bridges, oxo and pinacolato, is described. The compound shows good stability under air. The 2/modified methylalumoxane (MMAO) catalytic system produces ethylene/styrene interpolymers (ESIs) containing syndiotactic styrene/styrene sequences (syndiotactic polystyrene blocks) with a high styrene content. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of a group‐4‐based catalytic system producing an ESI with syndiotactic polystyrene blocks. magnified image
