Abstract
Group 3-6 or Lanthanide metal complexes possessing two metal centers joined by means of a divalent bridging group joining trivalent moieties comprising boron or a member of Group 14 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, and optionally also comprising nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur or oxygen, in the complexes, catalysts derived therefrom by combining the same with strong Lewis acids, Bronsted acid salts, salts containing a cationic oxidizing agent or subjected to bulk electrolysis in the presence of compatible, inert non-coordinating anions and the use of such catalysts for polymerizing olefins, diolefins and/or acetylenically unsaturated monomers are disclosed.
