ABSTRACT:
An olefin metathesis catalyst system and process for the metathesis polymerization of cyclic olefins, such as dicyclopentadiene, are disclosed. The catalyst system comprises the reaction product of:
(a) an imido transition metal halide complex of formula: ##STR1## wherein Ar is C.sub.6-20 aryl, preferably phenyl; M is a transition metal selected from the second and third rows of Groups 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the Periodic Table (IUPAC 1989 convention) and including for example niobium, tantalum, molybdenum, tungsten, rhenium, ruthenium or osmium, preferably tungsten or molybdenum; R is independently halide, C.sub.1-20 alkyl, C.sub.1-12 alkoxy, C.sub.1-12 haloalkyl, C.sub.6-20 aryl, C.sub.6-20 aryloxy, cyano or combinations thereof; L is independently a complexing ligand selected from carbonyl, C.sub.1-12 alkoxy, C.sub.1-12 haloalkoxy, C.sub.1-12 alkyl ethers, including mono-, di- and higher ethers, C.sub.12 alkylnitriles, C.sub.5-20 pyridines, C.sub.3-36 tri(hydrocarbyl)phosphines; X is independently halide, preferably chloride; x is 2 to 4; r is independently 0 to 5; y is 0 to 3, preferably 0 or 1; and x+y=3, 4, or 5; and
(b) a biphenol of the formula: ##STR2## in which each Ar represents an aromatic ring-containing moiety having at least one hydroxyl group attached to an aromatic ring; each R is independently selected from C.sub.1-12 alkyl, aryl, halide, mono-, di or trihalo methyl, cyano and alkoxy; each n is independently 0-4; and m is independently 1-4; and the catalyst system further includes a co- catalyst.
