Asymmetric double silylene-bridged binuclear complexes [(g 5 -RC 5 H 4 )MCl 2 ] 2 [l, l-(SiMe 2 ) 2 (g 5 -t-BuC 5 H 2 )(g 5 -C 5 H 3 )] [R 5 H, M 5 Ti (1); R 5 Me, M 5 Ti (2); R 5 allyl, M 5 Ti(3); R 5 H, M 5 Zr (4); R 5 allyl, M5 Zr (6)]; and [(g 5 -C 5 H 5 )TiCl 2 ] 2 [l, l-(SiMe 2 ) 2 (g 5 -Me 3 SiC 5 H 2 )(g 5 -C 5 H 3 )] (5) were synthesized by the reaction of (g 5 -RC 5 H 4 ) TiCl 3 or (g 5 -RC 5 H 4 )ZrCl 3 ÁDME (R 5 H, allyl) with [l, l-(SiMe 2 ) 2 (g 5 -t-BuC 5 H 2 )(g 5 -C 5 H 3 )] Li 2 or [l, l-(SiMe 2 ) 2 (g 5 -Me 3 Si C 5 H 2 )(g 5 -C 5 H 3 )]Li 2 in THF, and they were all well characterized by 1 H NMR, MS, IR, and EA. When activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO), they are efficient catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene (Complex 4, 5.99 3 10 5 g-PE/molÁZrÁh) and the polymer with multipeak broaden molecular weight distribution (PD 5 Mw/Mn) was obtained (polymer sample gained by complex 3, PD 5 25.03). The copolymerization results indicate that 1-hexene could incorporate into the growing PE chain with these complexes in the presence of MAO (Complex 4, 1.07 3 10 6 g-PE/molÁZrÁh; 1-hexene content, 1.57% mol).
