Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9822476A1] A method for the preparation of titanium-containing metallocene compounds, including constrained geometry titanium complexes, useful as olefin polymerization catalysts is disclosed. Pursuant to the invention, titanium tetrachloride is converted to titanium trichloride by reaction with a metal compound in a non-interfering solvent to produce a mixture useful directly for reaction with a deprotonated metallocene ligand. The titanocene compounds produced pursuant to the invention are free of trace amounts of aluminum which can adversely affect the polymerization reaction.
