Abstract

Disclosed are novel cyclopentadienyl transition metal compounds that are stable under a wide variety of conditions, particularly under conditions that include exposure to water and oxygen containing media. These novel compounds can be utilized in preparing novel catalyst systems useful in polymerizing olefins. The cyclopentadienyl compound can specifically be [(C5H4CH2CH2N[H]Me2)TiCl3]+B[C6F5]4-. Also disclosed are processes for preparing the novel cyclopentadienyl transition metal compounds.
