Page/Page column 59-60, (2020/01/10)
The present invention relates to a process for producing a copolymer of propylene, optionally ethylene, and at least one comonomer selected from alpha olefins having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms using a specific class of metallocene complexes in combination with a cocatalyst system comprising a boron containing cocatalyst and an aluminoxane cocatalyst, preferably in a multistage polymerization process including a gas phase polymerization step.
Lewis acidity of organofluorophosphonium salts: Hydrodefluorination by a saturated acceptor
Caputo, Christopher B.,Hounjet, Lindsay J.,Dobrovetsky, Roman,Stephan, Douglas W.

Prototypical Lewis acids, such as boranes, derive their reactivity from electronic unsaturation. Here, we report the Lewis acidity and catalytic application of electronically saturated phosphorus-centered electrophilic acceptors. Organofluorophosphonium salts of the formula [(C6F 5)3-xPhxPF][B(C6F5) 4] (x = 0 or 1; Ph, phenyl) are shown to form adducts with neutral Lewis bases and to react rapidly with fluoroalkanes to produce difluorophosphoranes. In the presence of hydrosilane, the cation [(C 6F5)3PF]+ is shown to catalyze the hydrodefluorination of fluoroalkanes, affording alkanes and fluorosilane. The mechanism demonstrates the impressive fluoride ion affinity of this highly electron-deficient phosphonium center.
