A metallocene procatalyst compound comprising a group 3 to 7 transition metal and a multisiloxy substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand or a multisiloxy substituted bicyclic cyclopentadienyl ligand with the proviso that if a siloxy group is present in the 6 membered ring of an indenyl ligand, then at least two siloxy substituents must be present on adjacent carbon atoms forming the bicyclic ring.

Bis-(1,2-(RMe2SiO)(2))ZrCl2 complexes with R = Me-(5a), iPr-(5b) and tBu-(5c) have been synthesised in good yields and characterised. Compounds 5a-c are the first synthesised examples of multi-siloxy-substituted cyclopentadienyl metallocenes. The siloxy-substituents have a for siloxy substituted metallocenes unique steric arrangement, with one almost in the same plane, and the other nearly perpendicular to the plane of the cyclopentadienyl ligand of the zirconocene. The ethylene/1-hexene co-polymerisation activity using methylalumoxane as co-activator gives low activities, with compound 5c (262.92 kg(PE)/g(Zr)/h) being the most active. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
