The N-substituents on the backbone of Ph2PN(R)Si(CH3)2CH2PPh2- and [Ph2PCH2Si(CH3)2]2N(R)-type silylated-diphosphinoamine (Si-PNP) systems have been observed to have a significant impact on their catalytic performance in ethylene oligomerization reactions. Cr precatalyst 3, bearing an isopropyl (iPr) substituent, affords the most efficient catalytic system and exhibited the highest selectivity (83%) toward 1-octene (1-C8) and showed a catalytic activity of more than 76,700 g(product)·g(Cr)-1·h-1 under experimental conditions. Single-crystal analysis results revealed the influence of steric constraints around the catalytically active center and established a relationship between the product selectivity and the P-Cr-P bite angle. Furthermore, DFT calculations indicate that the catalytic system based on precatalyst 3 faces a low energy barrier in the formation of 1-C8 and therefore shows high selectivity toward the 1-C8 fraction. Modification in the backbone length may alter the binding mode of the ligands from mononuclear-bidentate (k2-P, P) to mononuclear-tridentate (k3-P, N, P), which consequently switches the ethylene tetramerization systems to ethylene trimerization systems.

High performance catalysts switched by a series of silicon-bridged/N,P-based ancillary ligands have been explored. The precatalyst supported by L1 possessed a large steric bulk and exhibited a high activity of 16.8 × 106 g (mol Cr)-1 h-1 as well as a total selectivity of 99% toward 1-hexene and 1-octene. The selectivity for 1-hexene was adjustable from 59% to 88%. The catalyst bearing an L2 ligand, facilitated by a smaller steric bulk, displayed an identical activity of 13.0 × 106 g (mol Cr)-1 h-1 and a superior selectivity of 75% towards 1-octene under the appropriate conditions. The DFT calculations elucidated the reason for these excellent and tunable activities and selectivities.
