Abstract

Metallocenes which are useful as olefin polymerization catalysts are prepared by reacting a compound of a metal of the group 4 to 10, lanthanide or actinide series of the Periodic Table of the Elements with a magnesium halide salt of a cyclopentadienyl containing ligand in the presence of an organic halide so as to form the metallocene while simultaneously raising the oxidation state of the metal.
