Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the racemoselective synthesis of rac-diorgano- silylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium compounds and especially for the racemoselective synthesis of rac-dimethylsilylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium dichloride.
- the present invention relates to a process for the racemoselective synthesis of the abovementioned compound via the racemoselective synthesis of dimethylsilylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)- zirconium bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenoxide).
- Chiral metallocene complexes of metals of transition groups three to six of the Periodic Table of the Elements are increasingly being used for stereospecific olefin polymerization.
- Appropriately substituted ansa-metallocene complexes are generally obtained as a diastereomer mixture consisting of the racemic form and the meso form of the metallocene from processes of the prior art.
- Stereospecific olefin polymerization generally requires the use of the metallocene complex in its racemic form, i.e. without the mirror-symmetric meso compounds. For this reason, in the metallocene synthesis according to the prior art, the meso form has to be separated off from the diastereomer mixture.
- WO 99/15538 and DE 100 30 638 describe a general, multistage process for preparing racemic metal complexes via biphenoxide- or bisphenoxide-substituted metallocenes as intermediates.
- ansa-zirconocene dichloride complexes is generally carried out by a general route starting from ZrCI 4 or its solvent adducts.
- the cyclopentadienyl ligand is usually dissolved or suspended in toluene, with or without addition of small amounts of THF or D E, deprotonated by means of strong bases and subsequently reacted with zirconium tetrachloride in order to obtain the corresponding ansa-metallocene dichlorides and two equivalents of alkali metal chloride/alkaline earth metal chloride.
- the ansa-metallocene dichloride is separated from the alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts by means of filtration and is isolated by crystallization.
- a further disadvantage is the efficiency of the synthetic route.
- the ansa- metallocene compound has to be separated off from the alkali metal halides or alkaline earth metal halides formed as coproducts, and in some cases this proves to be difficult because of the low solubility of the ansa-metallocene compound, in particular in toluene, since the alkali metal halides or alkaline earth metal halides are also virtually insoluble in organic solvents.
- This separation step therefore requires large amounts of solvent, which in turn has an adverse effect on the productivity and effectiveness of the synthetic route.
- the present invention provides a specific process for the diastereoselective synthesis of rac- diorganosilylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium compounds of the formula I,
- Mi and M 2 are monovalent positive alkali metal ions or Mi and M 2 together represent a divalent positive alkaline earth metal ion.
- (I) comprises the following steps: a) deprotonation of 2-methylbenzo[e]indene by means of a suitable deprotonating agent;
- M-i and M 2 are monovalent positive alkali metal ions or Mi and M 2 together represent a divalent positive alkaline earth metal ion;
- the process of the present invention is particularly preferably carried out with the intermediate IV being converted in the same reaction vessel in which it has been formed into the complex I by replacement of the phenoxide groups.
- substituents R being selected from among methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyi, n-butyl, isobutyl and phenyl and combinations thereof.
- the substituents X are preferably selected from among F, CI, Br, I, methyl, ethyl, n- propyl, isopropyi, n-butyl and isobutyl, more preferably CI and/or methyl.
- Mi and M 2 being selected from among lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium or cesium ions or together representing magnesium.
- R being methyl or ethyl
- X being CI and LB being THF or DME
- Mi and M 2 each being Li.
- the Lewis base LB used is preferably tetrahydrofuran (THF), dimethoxyethane (DME) or tetrametriylethanediamine (TMEDA).
- a Lewis base preferably THF or DME, may, if appropriate, be added once again in the replacement of the phenoxide groups of the complex IV.
- the terms “meso form”, “racemate” and thus also “diastereomers” and “enantiomers” are known in the context of metallocene complexes and are defined, for example, in Reingold et al., Orga- nometallics 11 (1992), pages 1869 - 1876.
- the term “virtually meso-free” or “racemoselective” means that more than 80%, preferably at least 90%, of a compound are present in the form of the racemate, particularly preferably at least 95%.
- diorganosilylbis(2- methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconocene compounds I can be obtained racemoselectively in a simple manner via the corresponding diorganosilylbis(2-rnethylbenzo[e]indeny!)zirconium bis(3,5-di-tert- butylphenoxide) IV.
- diorganosilylbis(2- methylbenzojejindeny!) metal salt with zirconium bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenoxide) compounds leads diastereoselectively to a high excess of the racemate form of the complex IV.
- the process of the present invention can be carried out without isolation of the intermediates, in a "single-vessel process", starting from 2-methylbenzo[e]indene, with the process proceeding racemoselectively in high total yields.
- Particular preference is therefore given to the process of the present invention starting from 2-methylbenzo[e]indene being carried out without isolation of intermediates after the individual process steps.
- the synthesis strategy according to the present invention leads to significantly improved total yields of the racemate form of the resulting metallocene.
- the complex IV obtained as intermediate can readily be separated from the alkali metal salts or alkaline earth metal salts formed in parallel because of its good solubility in aliphatic and aromatic solvents.
- the good solubility of the complex IV additionally makes it possible for the synthesis to be carried out in high concentrations, which leads to increased productivity of the synthetic process of the present invention.
- the process is carried out with the complex IV being present in a concentration of 5 - 30% by weight, preferably 10 - 25% by weight, particularly preferably 15 - 25% by weight and very particularly preferably about 20% by weight, based on solvent used.
- the metallocene complexes I obtained according to the present invention generally still contain from 1 to 4 equivalents of a Lewis base which are generally introduced via the synthesis.
- Lewis bases are ethers such as diethy! ether or tetrahydrofuran (THF) and amines such as TMEDA.
- THF tetrahydrofuran
- the silyl-bridged alkali metal or alkaline earth metal bis(benzo[e]indenyl) salt II is reacted with the zirconium bis-(3,5-di-tert-butylphenoxide)-base ad- duct III to form the metallocene complex IV.
- the ligand salts II can be obtained by methods known from the literature using suitable deprotonating agents, for example by the, preferably, stoichiometric, reaction of an organometallic compound or a hydride of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal with 2-methylbenzo[e]indene.
- Sui- table organometallic compounds for deprotonating the methylbenzo[e]indene include strong bases, for example n-butyllithium, tert-butyllithium, sodium hydride, potassium tert-butoxide, Grignard reagents of magnesium or suitable compounds of magnesium such as di-n- butylmagnesium or (n,s)-dibutylmagnesium or other suitable alkali metal alkyl or alkaline earth metal alkyl compounds.
- Preferred compounds R 2 SiY 2 are dialkylsilane dichlorides such as dimethylsilane dichloride, die- thylsilane dichloride or dipropylsilane dichloride, or else diarylsilane dichlorides such as diphenyl- silane dichloride or alkylarylsilane dichlorides such as phenylmethylsilane dichloride.
- reaction products obtained are then once again deprotonated using the deprotonating agents as mentioned above to form the ansa-ligand salt II.
- Selected examples of compounds of the formula II which can be used according to the present invention are: dimethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)dilithium diethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)dilithium diphenylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)dilithium phenylmethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)dilithium dimethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)magnesium diethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)magnesium diphenylsilanediylbis(2-methylbehzo[e]indenyl)magnesium phenylmethylsilanediylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)magnesium
- two equivalents of 3,5-di-tert-butylphenol are likewise deprotonated by means of suitable strong bases as mentioned above in a manner known from the literature, preferably by means of butyllithium or Grignard compounds or other alkyllithium compounds, and subsequently reacted with zirconium tetrachloride or other zirconium halides such as zirconium tetrafluoride, tetrabromide or tetraiodide in suitable solvents, in the presence or absence of suitable Lewis bases, to form the zirconium bisphenoxide compound HI.
- suitable strong bases as mentioned above in a manner known from the literature, preferably by means of butyllithium or Grignard compounds or other alkyllithium compounds, and subsequently reacted with zirconium tetrachloride or other zirconium halides such as zirconium tetrafluoride, tetrabromide or tetraiodide in suitable solvent
- Suitable solvents for this purpose are aliphatic hydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane, heptane, aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, ortho-, meta- or para-xylene or isopropylbenzene (cume- ne), and also ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether or di- methoxyethane (DME), amines such as diisopropylamine, tetramethylethanediamine (TMEDA) or pyridine, with the latter also being suitable Lewis bases.

All Lewis bases which lead to adduct formation with the zirconium complexes are suitable for the purposes of the present invention.
- Solvent mixtures or solvent/Lewis base mixtures which are well suited to the synthesis of III are mixtures of toluene and THF, toluene and DME or toluene and TMEDA, with the Lewis base generally being present in an amount of from 0.1 to 50 mol%, preferably from 1 to 20 mol%, based on the solvent mixture.
- the reaction of the ligand salt II with the zirconium bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenoxide)-base adduct III to form the ansa-metallocene complex IV usually takes place in an organic solvent or suspension medium, preferably a solvent mixture comprising a Lewis-basic solvent, in the temperature range from -78°C to 250°C, preferably from 0 to 110°C.
- solvents are aliphatic hydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane, heptane, aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, ortho-, meta- or para-xylene or isopropylbenzene (cumene), ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether or dimethoxyethane (DME), amines such as diisopropylamine, tetramethylethanediamine (TMEDA) or pyridine.

- the reaction according to the present invention of the ligand salt II with the zirconium bisphenoxide complex 111 gives the corresponding diorganosilyl bis(2-methylbenzo[e]indeny!)zirconium bisphenoxide complex IV racemoselectively, with the rac:meso ratio for this compound being at least 4:1 , preferably about 5:1 , and particularly preferably 6 -10:1. Under appropriate reaction conditions, rac/meso ratios of 11:1 and more can also be obtained.
- the phenoxide groups are split off, preferably at room temperature, by means of a suitable "replacement agent", in particularly preferred embodiments by means of ace- tyl chloride or ethylaluminum dichloride, so as to give the racemic metal complex I. It has been found that, in general, no isomerization of the complex takes place during this replacement step.
- the phenoxide groups of the racemic complex IV can be completely split off or replaced in a simple manner essentially without rac/meso isomerization and can, if appropriate, be reused.
- Suitable replacement (substitution) methods are reaction of the racemic metallocene complexes of the formula IV with appropriate replacement reagents such as SOCI 2 , silicon tetrachloride, triethylaluminum dichloride, dimethylaluminum chloride, aluminum trichloride, dialkylal ⁇ minum chlorides, aluminum sesquichlorides, particularly preferably ethylaluminum dichloride, or else inorganic Br ⁇ nsted acids such as hydrogen halides, i.e. HF, HBr, HI, preferably HCl, which are generally employed as such or as a solution in water or organic solvents such as diethyl ether, THF.

- ethers such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether
- Very well suited solvents also include Lewis base-containing solvent mixtures of hydrocarbons and ethers or amines or both, for example mixtures of toluene and THF, toluene and DME or toluene and TMEDA, with the Lewis base generally being present in an amount of 0.01-50 mol%, preferably 0.1-10 mol%, based on the solvent mixture.

- organoaluminum compounds such as tri-C ⁇ -C 10 - alkylaluminum, i.e. trimethylaluminum, triethylaluminum, tri-n-butylaluminum, tri-isobutylaluminum, as replacement rea
- the components are usually used in the stoichiometric ratio, but an excess of replacement reagent can also be used if desired.
- the replacement reactions generally take place with retention of the stereochemistry of the metallocene complexes, i.e., in particular, essentially no conversion of the racemic form into the meso form of the metallocene complexes takes place. Rather, in many cases, particularly when using the above-described chlorination methods, the rac selectivity can be additionally increased while generally retaining the stereochemistry of the starting bisphenoxide complexes IV.
- Particularly preferred replacement agents according to the present invention are acetyl chloride, ethylaluminum dichloride and MeAICI 2 .
- substitution products formed are relatively easy to separate off from the target complex I since the diorganosilyl(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium compounds formed are generally relatively sparingly soluble and precipitate from the solvent during the replacement reaction. They can therefore be isolated in pure form by filtration and appropriate washing procedures.
- Both the 3,5-di-tert-butylphenol used as auxiliary ligand and the replacement or substitution agents used can generally be recovered in a simple manner and can, if appropriate, be recirculated and reused in a similar synthesis process.
- the auxiliary ligands and replacement agents used are nontoxic and nonmutagenic substances which can be handled without problems and which make the process of the present invention unproblematical in terms of safety requirements.
- the process of the present invention makes it possible to obtain the rac form of the metallocene complexes of the formula I very selectively.
- rac-metallocene compounds of the formula I are particularly preferably obtained by the process of the present invention: di ⁇ nethylsilylbis(2-methylbe ⁇ zo[e]indenyl)zirconi ⁇ m dichloride diethylsilylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium dichloride diphenylsiIylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium dichloride phenylmethylsilyIbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium dichloride phenylethyIsilylbis(2-methylbenzo[e]indenyl)zirconium dichloride.
- the process of the present invention can also be used to obtain the racemic transition metal compound of the formula IV,
- substituents R can be identical or different and are each linear, cyclic or branched C ⁇ o-alkyl or C ⁇ - 0 -aryl and are preferably selected from among methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyi, n-butyl, isobutyl and phenyl and combinations thereof.
- racemic complexes I obtained according to the present invention can be used as catalysts or in catalyst systems for the polymerization and copolymerization of olefinically unsaturated compounds such as ethylene, propylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-octene, styrene. They can be used particularly advantageously in the stereoseiective polymerization of prochiral, olefinically unsaturated compounds such as propylene and styrene.
- Suitable catalysts or catalyst systems in which the racemic metallocene complexes according to the present invention can function as "metallocene component” are usually obtained by means of compounds which form metallocenium ions, as described, for example, in EP-A-0 700 935, page 7, line 34, to page 8, line 21, and the formulae (IV) and (V).
- Further compounds capable of forming metallocenium ions are aluminoxanes (RAIO) n such as methylaluminoxane, and also boron activators.
- RAIO aluminoxanes
- the resulting complexes I and IV are obtained in a yield of about 30-80% of rac based on indene compound used.
- a further significant advantage is that the process of the present invention can be carried out ra- cemoselectively in a single-vessel process.
- a single-vessel process is one in which no intermediates are isolated after the individual process steps.
- the further reaction can be carried out directly using the reaction product mixtures from the preceding step.
- the intermediate compound IV formed can subsequently be converted into the target compound l by replacement of the phenoxide radicals in a further process step in the same reaction vessel..
