Abstract

Catalysts for olefin polymeriztion comprising metal complexes corresponding to the formula: ##STR1## or a dimer, solvated adduct, chelated derivative or mixture thereof, wherein: PA1 L is a cyclic group or Y*, that is bound to M by means of a delocalized .pi.-bond, said group containing up to 50 nonhydrogen atoms; PA1 L' is a cyclic group or Y* that is bound to M by means of a delocalized .pi.-bond, said group containing up to 50 nonhydrogen atoms; PA1 M is a metal of Group 4 of the Periodic Table of the Elements; PA1 Z is a covalently bound, divalent substituent of up to 50 non-hydrogen atoms having the formula, --(ER.sub.2).sub.m --, wherein E independently each occurrence is carbon, silicon or germanium, R independently each occurrence is selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl, hydrocarbyloxy, silyl, and germyl of up to 20 atoms other than hydrogen, and m is an integer from 1 to 3; PA1 Y* is an allyl or a hydrocarbyl-, silyl- or germyl-substituted allyl group containing up to 20 nonhydrogen atoms bonded to Z and bonded via an .eta..sup.3 -.pi. bond to M; PA1 where Y' is an allyl group or a hydrocarbyl-, silyl-, or germyl-substituted allyl group containing up to 20 non…
