Abstract

The functionalized (fluoroaryl)borate salts Ph₃C⁺B(C₆F₄TBS)₄^- and Ph₃C⁺B(C₆F₄TBS)₄^- and (TBS - ^tBuMe₂Si; TIPS = ⁱPr₃Si) are prepared in three steps from 1,4-HC₆F₄Br. Reaction with zirconocene dimethyls yields crystalline, thermally stable, soluble L₂ZrCH₃⁺B(C₆F₄SiR₃)₄^- and L₂^-ZrH⁺(C₆F₄SiR₃)₄^- salts (L = η⁵-C₅H₅; η⁵-1,2-Me₂C₅H₃; L⁺ = η⁵-Me₅C₅) which function as highly active ethylene polymerization catalysts.
