ABSTRACT:
Tantalum and niobium catalysts or catalyst precursors of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is cyclopentadienyl, which can be substituted with methyl up to five positions, or neopentylidene, R.sup.1 is neopentyl or benzyl, n is 0 or 1, R.sup.2 is neopentylidene, benzylidene, tetramethylene, or 2,3-dimethyltetramethylene, A is halo or a moiety of the formula YR.sup.3 R.sup.4 R.sup.5 wherein Y is a group 5 element including N, P, As, Sb and Bi and R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5 can be the same or different and are C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, aralkyl such as naphthyl, neophyl, tolyl or xylyl, aryl such as benzyl or phenyl or bipyridyl and Z is tantalum or niobium. The compounds selectively dimerize 1-olefins to 1-butenes; m=1 or 2.
