In this study, a series of aryloxy-aluminoxanes originated directly from the hydrolysis of reaction products of A1Me3 and phenols were synthesized, which could serve as effective polymer-retarding activators for the iron-catalyzed ethylene oligomerization. The molar ratios of [PhOH]/[AlMe3] and [H2O]/[Al] during the preparation were explored and their impacts on the oligomerization activity and product distribution were discussed. To obtain the effective activators with good polymer-retarding effect and relatively high activity, the optimized conditions were proposed to be [PhOH]/[AlMe3] = 0.5 and [H2O]/[Al] = 0.7. Various aluminoxanes with different [-OH] sources confirmed the importance of using phenols in preparing the effective polymer-retarding activators. By utilizing these aryloxy-aluminoxanes, the mass fraction of polymers in the total products could be reduced to lower than 1.0 wt%, which is much lower than that of the MAO-activated systems (〉 30 wt%). This is a potential benefit for the industrial application of the iron-catalyzed oligomerization process.

从锆系催化剂的结构修饰出发,合成了一系列具有Zr(OAr)nCl4-n·m Ar OH(n=1~4,m=0~7)结构的芳氧基锆系催化剂,并研究了锆酚配比及游离Ar OH含量等对乙烯齐聚行为的影响.结果表明,Zr(OPh)3Cl·m Ph OH/TEA/Et Al Cl2催化体系具有较高的齐聚催化活性[6.8×104g/(mol Zr·h)],所得产物主要为C4~C24的α-烯烃,无高聚物生成.研究发现,游离酚的存在对体系的催化性能有较大影响.该系列芳氧基锆系催化剂可催化乙烯齐聚与Friedel-Crafts烷基化的串联反应,即齐聚反应产物α-烯烃与甲苯溶剂发生烷基化反应而生成多取代芳香烃,压力越大烷基化反应程度越高.
