Descripción
We report the synthesis of a supported metallocene catalyst that exhibits the same activity as a homogeneous catalyst for ethylene polymerization reactions. The key to this new catalytic system is a hybrid organic-inorganic polymer obtained by the cocondensation of an organotrialkoxysilane (OTAS; 40 mol %) with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS; 60 mol %). The particular organic group of OTAS enabled us to avoid gelation when the hydrolytic condensation was performed with a thermal cycle attaining 150 °C. The resulting product [soluble functionalized silica (SFS)] was a glass at room temperature that was soluble in several organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran and toluene. The 29Si NMR spectrum of SFS showed that the OTAS units were fully condensed (T3 species), whereas the TEOS units were mainly present as tricondensed (Q3) and tetracondensed (Q4) units. SFS was grafted onto activated silica through a reaction of silanol groups. The metallocene [(nBuCp)2ZrCl2] was covalently bonded to the SFS-modified support. The polymerization of ethylene was carried out in toluene in the presence of methylaluminoxane. The activity of the supported catalyst was similar to that of the metallocene catalyst in solution. The simplest explanation accounting for this fact is that most of the metallocene was grafted to SFS species issuing from the surface of the support through a reaction with their silanol groups. This improved the accessibility of the monomer to the reaction sites. Specific interactions of the metallocene species with neighboring organic branches of SFS might also affect the catalytic activity.
