This application is a National Stage Application of International Application No. PCT/KR2016/005924, filed Jun. 3, 2016, and claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0069064, filed Jun. 2, 2016, Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0080018, filed Jun. 5, 2015, contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes as if fully set forth below.—The present disclosure relates to a novel metallocene compound.
In the early 1990s, [Me2Si(Me4C5)NtBu]TiCl2 (Constrained-Geometry Catalyst, hereinafter abbreviated as CGC) was reported by Dow Co. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,064,802). The CGC is superior to commonly known metallocene catalysts in a copolymerization reaction of ethylene and alpha-olefin as follows: (1) At a high polymerization temperature, high activity is shown and a polymer having a high molecular weight is produced, and (2) the copolymerization ability of alpha-olefin having large steric hindrance such as 1-hexene and 1-octene is excellent. In addition, a variety of characteristics of CGC upon polymerization are becoming gradually known, and thus thorough research into synthesis of derivatives thereof to serve as a polymerization catalyst is ongoing in academic and industrial fields.
A Group 4 transition metal compound having one or two cyclopentadienyl groups as a ligand may be used as a catalyst for olefin polymerization by activating it with methylaluminoxane or a boron compound. Such catalyst shows unique characteristics that traditional Zeigler-Natta catalyst does not have.
That is, a polymer obtained by using such catalyst has a narrow molecular weight distribution and higher reactivity for a second monomer such as alpha-olefin or cycloolefin, and distribution of the second monomer in the polymer is even. Furthermore, it is possible to control the stereoselectivity of the polymer in the polymerization of alpha-olefin by changing the substituent of the cyclopentadienyl ligand in the metallocene catalyst, and it is easy to control the degree of copolymerization, the molecular weight, and the distribution of the second monomer upon copolymerization of ethylene and other olefins.
Meanwhile, since the metallocene catalyst is more expensive than Zeigler-Natta catalyst, it must have good activity for its economic value. If the metallocene catalyst has high reactivity for the second monomer, there is an advantage that a polymer including a large amount of the second monomer may be obtained by using only a small amount of the second monomer.
Many researchers have studied various catalysts, and as a result, have proved that a bridged catalyst generally has high reactivity for the second monomer. The bridged catalyst developed until now may be classified into three types according to the type of the bridge. The first type of the bridged catalyst is a catalyst of which two cyclopentadienyl ligands are connected to an alkylene dibridge by the reaction of an electrophile, such as an alkyl halide, indene or fluorene. The second is a silicone-bridged catalyst of which the ligands are connected to —SiR2-, and the third is a methylene-bridged catalyst which is obtained by the reaction of fulvene, indene or fluorene.
However, very few catalysts have been practically applied in commercial factories from the catalysts mentioned above, and thus, preparation of catalysts showing more improved polymerization performance is still in demand.
The present disclosure provides a metallocene compound which has excellent activity and is capable of producing an olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight.
Particularly, the present disclosure provides a metallocene compound which maintains a high activity even in the presence of hydrogen because of its low hydrogen reactivity, and may polymerize an olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight.
The present disclosure provides a metallocene compound represented by the following Chemical Formula 1.
##STR00001##
##STR00002##
A metallocene compound according to the present disclosure may be used for the preparation of an olefin-based polymer, may have excellent activity, and may produce an olefin-based polymer having a relatively high molecular weight compared with the case of using a catalyst composition having a similar structure due to the structural and electrical steric hindrance effect.
Furthermore, the activity of the catalyst may be maintained for a long residence time in a reactor because of its long life time.
In the present disclosure, the terms “the first”, “the second”, and the like are used to describe a variety of components, and these terms are merely employed to differentiate a certain component from other components.
Further, the terms used in this description are just for explaining exemplary embodiments and it is not intended to restrict the present disclosure. The singular expression may include the plural expression unless it is differently expressed contextually. It must be understood that the term “include”, “equip”, or “have” in the present description is only used for designating the existence of characteristics taken effect, numbers, steps, components, or combinations thereof, and do not exclude the existence or the possibility of addition of one or more different characteristics, numbers, steps, components of combinations thereof beforehand.

However, it is not intended to limit the present disclosure to the specific examples and it must be understood that the present disclosure includes every modifications, equivalents, or replacements included in the spirit and technical scope of the present disclosure.
Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in more detail.
A metallocene compound according to the present disclosure is characterized in that it is represented by the following Chemical Formula 1.
##STR00003##
##STR00004##
In the metallocene compound according to the present disclosure, the substituents of Chemical Formula 1 are more specifically explained as follows.
The C1 to C20 alkyl group may include a linear or branched alkyl group, and specifically, it may be a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a pentyl group, a hexyl group, a heptyl group, an octyl group, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The C2 to C20 alkenyl group may include a linear or branched alkenyl group, and specifically, it may be an allyl group, an ethenyl group, a propenyl group, a butenyl group, a pentenyl group, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The C6 to C20 aryl group may include a single ring aryl group or a condensed ring aryl group, and specifically, it may be a phenyl group, a biphenyl group, a naphthyl group, a phenanthrenyl group, a fluorenyl group, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The C5 to C20 heteroaryl group may include a single ring heteroaryl group or a condensed ring heteroaryl group, and specifically, it may be a carbazolyl group, a pyridyl group, a quinoline group, an isoquinoline group, a thiophenyl group, a furanyl group, an imidazole group, an oxazolyl group, a thiazolyl group, a triazine group, a tetrahydropyranyl group, a tetrahydrofuranyl group, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The C1 to C20 alkoxy group may be a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a phenyloxy group, a cyclohexyloxy group, a tert-butoxyhexyl group, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
The Group 4 transition metal may be titanium, zirconium, hafnium, or the like, but is not limited thereto.
In the metallocene compound according to the present disclosure, it is more preferable in Chemical Formulae 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and 2e that R1 to R5 are each independently hydrogen, halogen, a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a pentyl group, a hexyl group, a heptyl group, an octyl group, an ethylene group, a propylene group, a butylene group, a phenyl group, a benzyl group, a naphthyl group, a halogen group, an ether group, a dimethyl ether group, a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, or a tert-butoxyhexyl group, and R6 to R32 are each independently hydrogen, halogen, a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a pentyl group, a hexyl group, a heptyl group, an octyl group, an ethylene group, a propylene group, a butylene group, a phenyl group, a benzyl group, a naphthyl group, a halogen group, an ether group, a dimethyl ether group, a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, or a tert-butoxyhexyl group, but is not limited thereto.
In the metallocene compound according to the present disclosure, it is preferable that Q1 and Q2 in Chemical Formula 1 are each independently hydrogen, a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a methoxymethyl group, a tert-butoxymethyl group, a 1-ethoxyethyl group, a 1-methyl-1-methoxyethyl group, a tert-butoxyhexyl group, a tetrahydropyranyl group, or a tetrahydrofuranyl group, but is not limited thereto.
In the metallocene compound according to the present disclosure, B1 in Chemical Formula 1 is preferably silicon, but is not limited thereto.
Specifically, the metallocene compound of the Chemical Formula 1 is characterized in that the substituent of the Chemical Formula 2a includes a silylalkyl group such as trimethylsilyl methyl.
More specifically, as the indene derivative of the Chemical Formula 2a has a silylalkyl group at the 2-position carbon of the indene, the vicinity of the active site is opened only in one direction due to the steric effect by the substituent, and thereby the polymer can be grown only in one direction. In addition, chain elongation can occur relatively strongly because access to monomers or reagents that cause chain transfer is difficult and beta-elimination of the beta site is difficult in the molecule itself. Therefore, the olefin polymer having a relatively high molecular weight can be polymerized with high activity as compared with the case of using another metallocene compound having a similar structure.
In particular, since the compound has the indenyl group represented by the above Chemical Formula 2a containing a silylalkyl group at 2-position carbon only on one side, it has smaller steric hindrance effect than the compound having a silylalkyl group on both sides. Therefore, when the ethylene-alpha olefin copolymerization proceeds, the content of the comonomer can be effectively increased even when a relatively large alpha-olefin such as 1-hexene, 1-heptene or 1-octene is used.
In addition, the compound forms a structure in which the indeno indole derivative represented by the following Chemical Formula 2b, the fluorenyl derivative represented by the following Chemical Formula 2c, the indene derivative represented by the following Chemical Formula 2d, and the cyclopentadiene derivative represented by the following Chemical Formula 2e are cross-linked by a bridge, and exhibits a high polymerization activity by having a non-covalent electron pair capable of acting as a Lewis base in a ligand structure.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific example of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 2a may be a compound represented by any one of the following structural formulae, but is not limited thereto.
##STR00005## ##STR00006## ##STR00007##
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific example of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 2b may be a compound represented by any one of the following structural formulae, but is not limited thereto.
##STR00008## ##STR00009## ##STR00010##
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific example of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 2c may be a compound represented by any one of the following structural formulae, but is not limited thereto.
##STR00011## ##STR00012##
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific example of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 2d may be a compound represented by any one of the following structural formulae, but is not limited thereto.
##STR00013##
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a specific example of the compound represented by Chemical Formula 2e may be a compound represented by any one of the following structural formulae, but is not limited thereto.
##STR00014##
The metallocene compound according to the present disclosure may have excellent activity and may polymerize an olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight.
Furthermore, the metallocene compound according to the present disclosure may polymerize an olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight with still high activity because of its low hydrogen reactivity, even when the polymerization reaction is carried out in the presence of hydrogen in order to prepare an olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight and a wide molecular weight distribution at the same time. Therefore, the metallocene compound may prepare an olefin-based polymer satisfying the high molecular characteristic without a decrease in activity even when the metallocene compound is heterogeneously used together with a catalyst having different characteristics, and thus the olefin-based polymer having a high molecular weight and a wide molecular weight distribution may be easily prepared.
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the metallocene compound of Chemical Formula 1 may be obtained by connecting the indene derivative and the cyclopentadiene derivative with a bridge compound to prepare a ligand compound, and carrying out a metallation by adding a metal precursor compound, but is not limited to thereto.
More specifically, for example, after preparing a lithium salt by reacting the indene derivative with an organic lithium compound such as n-BuLi, a halogenated compound of a bridge compound is mixed therewith and then this mixture is reacted to prepare the ligand compound. After mixing the ligand compound or the lithium salt thereof and the metal precursor compound, and reacting them for about 12 to 24 hours until the reaction is completed, the reaction mixture may be filtered and dried under reduced pressure to obtain the metallocene compound represented by Chemical Formula 1.

Referring to Table 1, in the case of the polymerization examples using the metallocene compound of the present disclosure as a catalyst, it is confirmed that an ethylene polymer having a generally high weight average molecular weight is obtained. In particular, as an indenyl group having a trimethylsilyl group at the 2-position carbon exists only on one side of the metallocene compound molecule, it can be confirmed that the incorporation of 1-hexene is high.
