摘要
A series of neutral nickel complexes featuring N-fluorinated phenyl salicylaldiminato chelate ligands was syn- thesized, and the novel molecular structure of complex C14 was further confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analy- sis. The neutral nickel complexes showed high activity up to 9.96× 10^5 g oligomers/（mol Nioh） and high selectivity of C6 in catalyzing ethylene oligomerization using methylaluminoxane （MAO） as cocatalyst. It was observed that the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the fluorinated salicylaldiminato ligand was able to significantly increase the catalytic activity for oligomerization of ethylene. In addition, the influence of reaction parameters such as A1/Ni molar ratio, reaction temperature, a variety of cocatalyst and ethylene pressure on catalytic activity was investigated.
