Abstract

A very active catalyst system for olefin polymerization comprises a cocatalyst, preferably an aluminoxane, and a metallocene of the formula I ##STR1## in which, preferably, M.sup.1 is Zr or Hf, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are alkyl or halogen, R.sup.3 is hydrogen, R.sup.4 to R.sup.6 and alkyl or aryl, --(CR.sup.8 R.sup.9).sub.m --R.sup.7 --(CR.sup.8 R.sup.9).sub.n is a single- or multi-membered chain, in which R' can also be a (substituted) hetero atom, and m+n is zero or 1.
