  • This invention relates to the supported ionic catalyst systems based on transition metal compounds activated by aryl-group containing Lewis acids that are capable of providing insertion polymerization catalysts and to the preparation of olefin polymers
  • Group 13 based Lewis acids having fluorinated aryl substituents are known to be capable of activating transition metal compounds into olefin polymerization catalysts

  • the term "noncoordinating anion” is now accepted terminology in the field of olefin polymerization, both by coordination or insertion polymerization and carbocationic polymerization See, for example, EP 0 277 004, U S patent 5,198,401, and Baird, Michael C , et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc.
  • noncoordinating anions are described to function as electronic stabilizing cocatalysts, or counterions, for cationic metallocene complexes which are active for olefin polymerization

  • the invention provides an olefin polymerization catalyst which is the reaction product of 1) transition metal compounds having ancillary, stabilizing ligands and at least two labile ligands suitable for insertion of olefins and capable of abstraction or removal so as to form active cationic transition metal centers and 2) a support bound, neutral Lewis acid comprising a boron atom having two halogenated aryl ligands and a third ligand which is an heteroatom covalently bonded to a polymeric or metal/metalloid oxide support.
