The weakly coordinating anions {Cwere prepared as their trityl salts (2-OR) and fully characterized. Stoichiometric reactions with Cp 2 ZrMe 2 yield dimeric (3-OR) or monomeric (4-OR) metallocenium ions; the latter are highly effective cocatalysts for ethylene polymerization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
