Embodiment
The preparation method of bridged metallocene Zr-tombarthite catalyst is as follows:
1) fluorenyl ligand is synthetic
5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene is dissolved in the organic solvent, is cooled to-30~0 ℃, slowly drips fluorenes lithium solution, and time for adding 1.5 ~ 2.5 hours dropwises and continues reaction 10 ~ 12 hours;
The mol ratio of 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene and fluorenes lithium is: 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene: fluorenes lithium=1 ~ 1.1:1;
Organic solvent is selected from anhydrous diethyl ether or sherwood oil.
Synthetic method is shown below:
The selection of solvent is extremely important, selects anhydrous diethyl ether or sherwood oil as solvent, can effectively control the degree of reaction, and the Br that can control in the 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene reacts, and Cl does not react.And when selecting the larger solvent of methylene dichloride, toluene or tetrahydrofuran (THF) isopolarity, Br and Cl can participate in reaction, the elective reduction of reaction.
When using 5,6-, two chloro-1-hexenes as reactant, need fluorenes lithium solution slowly is added drop-wise in the 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene solution, and in reaction, keep 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene excessive always.Condition control is improper can to produce 9,10-, two indenyls-1-decene.The next step can't occur in 9,10-, two indenyls-1-decene, need to separate through gel column.And the present invention utilizes the reactive difference of Br and Cl, and the selection by suitable reaction conditions obtains the purpose product.Avoided the separation of later stage product.Temperature of reaction is-30~0 ℃, does not need too low temperature of reaction.
The concentration of 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene is unqualified, and those skilled in the art can select suitable concentration according to practical situation.The fluorenes lithium is synthetic with known method by fluorenes and butyllithium.Butyllithium can be bought also and can be prepared in sherwood oil or normal hexane solvent with chlorobutane by the Li band according to known method.
React complete, after decompression steams most of solvent, separate through chromatographic column, obtain 6-indenyl-5-chloro-1-hexene, save backup.Also can separate without chromatographic column, react complete after, steam and to desolventize the rear the next step of directly carrying out.

Directly carry out step 2 if the fluorenyl ligand that step 1) obtains does not steam except organic solvent) reaction, speed of response is very slow, products collection efficiency is low.We find, use step 2) in when using tetrahydrofuran (THF) as solvent, side reaction is few, can react rapidly, the part productive rate height that obtains.
The indenes lithium is synthetic with known method by indenes and butyllithium.Butyllithium can be bought also can be according to known method by chlorobutane and Li preparation.The order of addition(of ingredients) of fluorenyl ligand and indenes lithium is not particularly limited, and preferably indenes lithium solution is added drop-wise to the mode in the fluorenyl ligand.

3DME, wherein DME is glycol dimethyl ether, Cp is cyclopentadienyl.CpZrCl
3The mol ratio of DME and part lithium salts is 1:(1~1.1), stirring reaction 30~48 hours, reaction product is through centrifugation, residual solid is used dichloromethane extraction again, all extraction liquids and the centrifugal liquid that obtains are merged, be concentrated into and solid occurs, place for-25 ℃~-15 ℃ and namely got title complex intermediate (I) in 12~24 hours;
(I)。
Intermediate (I) purity that obtains of crystallization is higher as stated above, is easy to analyze.But this intermediate product is very responsive to empty G﹠W.If not strict airtight preservation then very easily decompose.
The title complex intermediate (I) that obtains can directly be weighed, and is convenient to calculate the ingredient proportion of compound in each step.
After all extraction liquids and the centrifugal liquid merging that obtains, directly carry out the next step after also can concentrating.Do not need-25 ℃~-15 ℃ to place 12~24 hours, saved the reaction times, and the catalyzer that finally obtains, catalytic effect is also unaffected.
5) bridged metallocene Zr-tombarthite catalyst is synthetic

(II)。
Preferably, the reaction times in the step 5) is 12~16 hours, and the used organic solvent of recrystallization is selected from the mixed solvent of toluene, methylene dichloride or toluene and methylene dichloride.
In the catalyzer preparation of the present invention, the selection of solvent is extremely important; In different reactions steps, use different solvents, be conducive to the carrying out that react, also be conducive to improve productive rate.We find that the solvent in the preparation process is selected, and not exclusively follows the principle of " similar mixing ", such as, in the reaction that has lithium salts to participate in, the non-polar solvents such as use sherwood oil are higher than using the tetrahydrofuran (THF) productive rate on the contrary.We find to use solvent of the present invention through a large amount of experiments, and reaction yield is the highest.The selection of solvent has determined that also the Br in the 5-chloro-6-bromo-1-hexene reacts, or Br and Cl react; We find, when adopting weak polar solvent (such as anhydrous diethyl ether or sherwood oil), can control that the Br atom reacts and Cl does not react; But nonpolar pentane solvent is used in the discovery of also being taken aback simultaneously, and reaction yield is not high.
Described each reaction all needs to carry out under inert atmosphere, adopts the shenlink technology, and rare gas element is argon gas or nitrogen.
