Polymerisation of ethene by the novel titanium complex [Ti(Me(3)SiNCH(2)CH(2)NSiMe(3))Cl-2]; A metallocene analogue

Reaction of the trimethylsilylated diamine ligand (Me(3)-Si)NHCH2CH2NH(SiMe(3)) with titanium(IV) precursors affords the novel distorted-tetrahedral complex [Ti(Me(3)-SiNCH(2)CH(2)NSiMe(3))Cl-2] which, when activated by methylaluminoxane, is an active ethene polymerisation catalyst.
