The best activity was achieved for dichlorobis(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone)zirconium(IV) at Al/Zr = 2500 at 60 °C. Conversely, dichlorobis(3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone)titanium(IV) exhibited a higher catalyst activity at lower Al/Ti ratio and temperature. According to 1H NMR analysis, two stereoisomers are present for the zirconium complex. Electrochemical analyses evidenced a higher stability in the reduction of Zr(IV) in comparison to the analogous Ti(IV) complex. The cyclic voltammogram of the Ti complex in the presence of MAO and ethylene shows a potential shift to lower values, suggesting the formation of the Ti cationic species, which might be stabilized by ClMAO−. For the Zr complex in the presence of MAO, stabilization of the active species takes place only in the presence of an ethylene atmosphere.
