1,2-Diiminophosphoranes 14 featuring either ethane, benzene, cyclohexane or 1,2-diphenylethane carbon backbones act as tightly bonded 1,4-chelating ligands towards NiCl2, affording the corresponding paramagnetic complexes 58 in high yield. X-Ray diffraction studies performed on compounds 5 and 6 revealed that the conformation of the five-membered metallacycle depends on the rigidity of the carbon backbone. For both complexes, the coordination sphere of the Ni atom is a distorted tetrahedron with bond lengths and angles around nickel similar to those observed for related Ni(II)(α-diimine) complexes. Complexes 58 are active for ethylene oligomerisation under mild reaction conditions (0 °C, 1.1 bar) upon activation by alkylaluminum derivatives (Et2AlCl or MAO). The nature of the carbon backbone of the 1,2-diiminophosphorane ligands has a profound impact on the selectivity of the catalytic systems. The selectivity for trimers and higher oligomers varies from 10% (pre-catalyst 8) to 81% (pre-catalyst 5). Effects of varying ethylene pressure, temperature and aluminium co-catalyst/nickel ratios with pre-catalyst 6 are reported. Tailoring the reaction parameters has a modest effect on the oligomer distribution but allows quite high catalytic activities to be achieved with turnover frequencies up to 135 × 103 h−1. |
