  • Synthesis, Characterization and Polymerization of Ethylene Using a Novel Soluble Magnesium-Titanium Catalyst*
    Synthesis, characterization and polymerization of ethylene using a novel soluble magnesium-titanium catalyst* Ganugupati Satyanarayana and Swaminathan Sivaramt Division of Polymer Chemistry, National Chemical Laboratory, Pune 411008, India (Received 4 January 1993; revised 28 May 1993) A l:2 complex of MgCI2 and tetrahydrofuran (THF) was prepared by a simple Grignard decomposition reaction using Mg metal and 1,2-dichloroethane in THF as diluent. The MgC12.2THF complex formed a homogeneous solution with titanium-n-butoxide in xylene at 60°C. The soluble Mg-Ti complex in xylene polymerized ethylene under homogeneous conditions in the presence of organoaluminium compounds. The kinetic behaviour of the polymerization reaction was studied. It was observed that the presence of MgCI2 transformed the Ti centre from a dimerization to a polymerization catalyst. (Keywords: magnesium chloride; titanium-n-butoxide; magnesium-titanium catalyst) INTRODUCTION a Grignard decomposition reaction forms a soluble complex with titanium-n-butoxide, which in conjunction Solid catalysts based on anhydrous MgCI z and Ti halides with organoaluminium compound initiates ethylene have attracted considerable attention during the past polymerization under homogeneous conditions in xylene decade as components of high efficiency ethylene and as the solvent 11. This paper reports our results on the propylene polymerization catalysts 1. The role of MgC12 synthesis, characterization and polymerization of ethylene in these catalysts has been widely discussed in the using this novel soluble Mg-Ti catalyst. literature 2. There are, however, only a few reports of truly soluble Mg-Ti catalysts for olefin polymerization.

  • Reactions of Organoaluminium Compounds with Electron Donors
    REACTIONS OF ORGANOALUMINIUM COMPOUNDS WITH ELECTRON DONORS S. P ASYNKIEWICZ Institute of Organic Chemistry and Technology, Technical University ( Politechnika). Warsaw, Poland ABSTRACT The application of organoaluminium compounds as components of organa­ metallic or complex systems is connected with a knowledge of their reactions with electron donors. Reactions with nitriles, ketones, esters, ethers, alkyl chlorides, vinyl chloride, and acid chlorides as the electron donors were investigated. The first stage of the reaction of an organoaluminium compound with an electron donor involves formation of the corresponding donor-acceptor complex. A knowledge of the structure of the formed complexes is very important for an elucidation of the reaction course and mechanism. The heat of formation, composition, and molecular weight of the corresponding complexes were determined, and their i.r. and n.m.r. spectra were studied. From these investigations general conclusions were made concerning, the influence of the Lewis acidity of the organoaluminium compound on the structure of its complexes and on their reactivity; the effect of reactant mole ratio (organoaluminium compound to electron donor) on the reaction course, and thc influence of the molecular structure of the complex and of dislocation of electrons on the reaction mechanism. Hallwachs and Schafarik1 synthesized the first organoaluminium com­ pound 120 years ago. By treating aluminium with ethyl iodide they pre­ pared ethylaluminium sesqui-iodide. However, the chemistry of organo­ aluminium compounds received little attention until the investigations of Ziegler and his collaborators. in about 1950. The development of the direct synthesis of organaalumini um compounds from aluminium. ethylene, and hydrogen, and elaboration of normal pressure polymerization of ethylene, aroused great interest.

  • Unique Properties of Aluminium and Its Compounds
    Unique properties of some selected p block elements (Reading material for CML 514) Unique properties of Aluminium and its compounds Aluminium is the third most abundant metal on the earth’s crust and it is found to be present in as many as 270 minerals. Aluminosilicates form a major component of the earth’s crust. Aluminium is one of the lightest metals with low density and resists reactivity by forming a thin passivation layer of aluminium oxide (about 4 nm thickness) on any exposed aluminium surface. Although pure aluminium has a very low yield strength (the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically) its alloys with metals such as copper, magnesium and zinc have very high yield strength comparable to that of steel. Many of its alloys have very good strength to weight ratio and therefore find applications where a strong light metal is required such as aeroplanes, modern trains and racing cars. It is a good thermal and electrical conductor, possessing 59% of the electrical conductivity of copper, while its density is only 30% that of copper. AlCl3 is a very good Lewis acid and a reagent suited specifically for alkylation and acylation reactions of aromatics (Friedel–Crafts reaction). Sodium salts of long chain aryl sulphonates (for example, dodecyl benzenesulphonate), whose aryl–alkyl unit is made using AlCl3 catalyst, are used as surfactants in laundry detergents. Aluminium sulfate is an important flocculating agent in the purification of water and a sizing agent of paper replacing potassium alum. Positively charged aluminium cations neutralise the negative charge on colloidal particles in water leading to mutual adsorption and flocculation.
