Discovery and evaluation of highly active imidotitanium ethylene polymerisation catalysts using high throughput catalyst screening

Abstract
A family of ca. 50 imidotitanium precatalysts [Ti(NR)(Me3[9]aneN3)Cl2] (R = alkyl or aryl; Me3[9]aneN3 = 1,4,7-trimethyltriazacyclononane) were prepared in good yields using semi-automated procedures; high-throughput screening techniques identified seven highly active ethylene polymerisation precatalysts with activities in the range ca. 3 400 to 10 000 kg(PE) mol−1 h−1 bar−1.
