(N,N′-dimethyl-p-toluamidinato)trichlorotitanium: Synthesis, structure, and polymerization catalysis

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/om00004a073

A reaction between N-(trimethylsilyl)-N,N′-dimethyl-p-toluamidine and TiCl₄ in CH₂Cl₂ produces (N,N′-dimethyl-p-toluamidinato)trichlorotitanium, which is formulated as a dimer with two chloro bridges. The new complex is moderately active in the polymerization of both styrene and ethylene when activated with methylaluminoxane.
