Description
Ethylene oligomerization catalyst
The present invention relates to an ethylene oligomerization catalyst and a process for making thereof. The present invention also relates to use of such catalyst for making a linear alpha-olefin.
Olefin oligomerization catalysts are known in the art, but sometimes lack selectivity to a desired product and also have a low product yield. Enhancements in preparation methods for oligomerization catalysts to improve productivity and selectivity to the desired product can reduce catalyst cost and improve economics.
US6800702 discloses a catalyst which comprises (a) a source of Chromium, molybdenum or tungsten, (b) a ligand containing at least one phosphorus, arsenic or antimony atom bound to at least one hydrocarbyl or heterohydrocarbyl group having a polar substituent, but excluding the case where all such polar substituents are phPsphane, arsane or stibana groups; and optionally (c) an activator.
US2010/0081777 discloses a P-N-P ligand for ethylene
oligomerizations. The catalyst system comprises i) a source of chromium, (ii) a defined P-N-P ligand and (iii) an activator. It is mentioned that the hexenes and octenes produced with this ligand contain very low levels of internal olefins when produced under preferred reaction conditions. The catalyst components (i), (ii) and (iii) can be unsupported or supported on a support material, for example, silica, alumina, MgCI2 or zirconia, or on a polymer.
Peulecke et. Al, ChemCatChem Vol. 2, Issue 9, pages 1079-1081 describes a selective homogeneous chromium-based ethene trimerization catalyst heterogenized by immobilization on a functionalized polymer support. The catalyst is based on a new class of aminophosphine ligands with a Ph2PN(iPr)P(Ph)N(iPr)H (PNPNH) backbone, in conjunction with [CrCI3(thf)3] and Et3AI as a cheap and well- defined aluminum-alkyl activator. This publication also discloses using silica for immobilization of the catalyst (RO)3Si(CH2)3NHP(Ph)N(iPr)PPh2. It is mentioned that after complexation of [CrCI3(thf)3] and activation with ΕΐβΑΙ, the oligomerization of ethene resulted in a oligomers/polyethene ratio of only 3:1 and a selectivit within the liquid fraction of up to 70% 1-hexene (after two runs).
While these catalysts have been described in the art, there is still a need for improved catalysts for ethylene oligomerization in terms of selectivity and productivity.
An object of the present invention is to provide an ethylene oligomerization catalyst system which has good selectivity towards ethylene oligomer and which has a good ethylene oligomerizing catalysis effect.
According to one aspect of the present invention, an ethylene oligomerization catalyst system is provided comprising an activator and an organometallic complex, wherein the complex comprises a metal chosen from the group consisting of Cr, V and Mo and a ligand defined by the formula (III):
wherein R is each independently CH3 or CH3CHZl 2 is a straight, branched or cyclic C1-C6 alkyl group or an aryl group and n and m are each independently an integer between 1 and 5.
The ethylene oligomerization catalyst system according to the present invention has a very high selectivity towards oligomers and produces no or very small amount of polyethylene.
Preferably, R2 is an aryl group, in particular a phenyl group.
Preferably, the metal is Cr. A preferred source of chromium is a chromium halide, especially a chromium chloride. Especially preferred is CrGI2(THF)2 or CrCI3(THF)3. Other sources of metal include chromium (III) 2-ethylhexanoate; chromium (III) acetylacetonate and Cr(aryl)3(THF).
Preferably, the metal is Cr and R2 is a phenyl group.
Particularly preferred groups of metal complex is represented by formula I) or (II):
In particular preferred embodiments, the metal complex is represented by:
In some embodiments of the present invention, the organometallic complex is supported by an inorganic carrier. The organometallic complex can be supported by for example a Lewis base-Lewis acid interaction between complex and support. An example of a support suitable for this type of interaction is gC(2.
Preferably the complex is covalently linked to reactive groups on the support. An example of a reactive group is an OH- group. Preferably the support contains vicinal OH groups, which can react with one or more of the Si-OR groups of the ligand of the complex. Examples of carriers that can bind the complex comprise silica, alumina, alumina silicate or clay. Particularly preferred is silica. Vicinal OH groups on a silica carrier are OH groups that are present at adjacent Si-atoms on the surface of the silica carrier.
Surprisingly, the catalyst system comprising the supported
organometallic complex according to the present invention was found to have a very high selectivity towards oligomers comparable to the catalyst system according to the present invention used without the inorganic carrier. Particularly advantageously, the catalyst system comprising the supported organometallic complex according to the present invention allows any polyethylene formed to be filtered off. It was found that, due to the presence of the inorganic carrier, any polyethylene produced remains within the catalyst particle. Since polyethylene can be filtered off together with the catalyst particle, reactor fouling can be prevented. In all existing commercial ethylene oligomerization processes, e.g. SHOP (Shell), -S1.H (Chevron-Phillips), a-Sablin (SABIC), the polyethylene produced precipitates and the problem of reactor fouling occurs to a certain extent. Unlike the catalyst systems used in these existing processes, the system according to the present invention allows any produced polyethylene to be easily removed and prevents reactor fouling. Furthermore, leaching tests showed that under the reaction conditions applied, no detectable catalyst leaching occurred.
In the catalyst system according to the present invention where the metal is Cr, Cr may be present in the complex in the form or Cr(lll) such as in the case of complex (I) or in the form of Gr(ll) such as in the calse of complex (II).
The catalyst system according to the present invention where Cr is present in the complex in the form of Cr (II) has an advantage that produces substantially no polymers when used without the support.
The catalyst system according to the present invention where Cr is present in the complex in the form of Cr (III) has an advantage that it has a particularly high selectivity towards certain oligomers, especially at low oligomerization
temperatures. This also allows optimizing the results by tuning the oligomerization temperature.
The activator may be any compound that generates an active catalyst for ethylene oligomerization with the ligand according to the present invention and the source of the metal used. Mixtures of activators may also be used. Suitable
compounds include organoaluminum compounds, organoboron compounds and the like. Suitable organoaluminum compounds include compounds of the formula AIR3, where each R is independently C1-C12 alkyl, oxygen or hali.de; and compounds such as LiAIH4 and the like. Examples include trimethylaluminum (TMA), triethylaluminum (TEA), tri-isobutylaluminium (TIBA), tri-n-octylaluminium and alumoxanes. Alumoxanes are well known in the art as typically oligomeric compounds which can be prepared by
the controlled addition of water to an alkylaluminium compound, for example trimethylaluminium. Such compounds can be linear, cyclic, cages or mixtures thereof. Commercially available alumoxanes are generally believed to be mixtures of linear and cyclic compounds. The cyclic alumoxanes can be represented by the formula [R6AIO]s and the linear alumoxanes by the formula R7(RBAIO)s wherein s is a number from about 2 to 50, and wherein R6, R7, and R8 represent hydrocarbyl groups, preferably CI to C6 alkyl groups, for example methyl, ethyl or butyl groups. Alkylalumoxanes especially methylalumoxane (MAO) are preferred. (MAO is also referred to as methalumoxane and methylaluminoxane in the literature).
It will be recognized by those skilled in the art that commercially available alkylalumoxanes may contain a proportion of trialkylaluminium. For instance, commercial MAO usually contains approximately 10 wt % trimethylaluminium (TMA), and commercial "modified MAO" (or "MMAG") contains both TMA and TIBA. Quantities of alkylalumoxane are generally quoted herein on a molar basis of aluminium (and include such "free" trialkylaluminium). The alkylalumoxane and/or alkylaluminium may be added to the reaction media (i.e. ethylene and/or diluent and/or solvent) prior to the addition of the catalyst or at the same time as the catalyst is added. Such techniques are known in the art of oligomerization and are disclosed in more detail in for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,491,272; 5,750,817; 5,856,257; 5,910,619; and 5,919,996.

Experiment 1
Preparation of the complex
A mixture of 8.0 g of Br2 and 50 ml of anhydrous CH3CN cooled at 0°C was added to a mixture of 11.03 g of PPh2CI and 50 ml of anhydrous CH3CN cooled at a temperature of 0 °C. The resulting mixture was stirred at 0°C for 1h. 15.18 g of triethylamine followed by 22.14 g of NH2(CH2)3Si(OEt)3 was subsequently added at 0°C and the resulting mixture refluxed at a temperature of 80 °C. The temperature was maintained for 5 days to obtain (EtO)3Si(CH2)3 NHPBr(Ph)2NH(CH2)3Si(EtO)3 (28.8 g, 82% yield). This was mixed with 2.0 eq. of BuLi and at temperature of -80 °C, stirred while slowly heating to room temperature, whereafter 1.0 eq. of CrCI3(THF)3 was added to obtain complex 1 after reaction at 25 °C for 24 hours:
complex 1
Oligomerization of ethylene
A Parr reactor was dried in an oven at 115 eC overnight prior to the run and then placed under vacuum for 1h at 120 °C. The reactor was then cooled at 95 °C and charged with toluene (90 ml), MAO (1000 eq., 30 mmol of a 10% wt solution in toluene) and 200 psi (about 13.8 bar) of ethylene with stirring. After 15 min the
pressure was momentarily released to allow injecting the complex 1 (30 pmol in 10 ml of toluene, prepared in drybox by stirring the complex 1 with toluene for 1h) into the reactor under a stream of ethylene and then the reactor was immediately repressurized with ethylene (600 psi (about 41.4 bar)). The reaction was allowed to run for 30 min while maintaining the temperature at 90 °C. The temperature was then rapidly reduced to 5°C with an ice bath; the reactor was depressurized and a mixture of MeOH/HCI cone. (45ml/5ml) was injected to quench the reaction. The resulting polymeric mass was separated from the organic and aqueous phases by press filtration and dried at 60 °C for 18 h under reduced pressure before the final mass was weighed. The organic phase was separated from the aqueous phase and analysis and yield of oligomers were obtained respectively by GC by using calibrated standard solutions and by 1H- NMR, integrating the intensity of the olefinic resonances versus the Ph and the Me group of the toluene solvent. Precautions were taken to maintain the temperature as low as possible during the workup to minimize loss of volatiles.
As indicated in Table 1 , 44 mL of oligomers was obtained, showing the activity of the complex 1 to be 2933 mL/mmol Cr/h. 43% of the oligomers obtained were C6 and C8 oligomers. 3.0g of polymer also resulted.
