Popis: Surface reactions between bis(cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride (Cp 2 ZrCl 2 ) and porous SiO 2 surface were studied by preparing series of samples by saturated gas–solid reactions in an atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) reactor. Partially dehydroxylated silica supports were obtained by preheating. Cp 2 ZrCl 2 reacted mainly with the isolated OH groups. The availability of OH groups influenced the bonding mode of the zirconocene complex which was mainly singly bonded on silica preheated at 600 °C, while preheating at 350 °C resulted in multiple bonding as revealed by NMR and elemental analyses. There was no evidence for surface alkylation or chlorination.
