Resumo

Monometallic {[}RuCl2(eta(6)-p-cymene)(pipNH(2))] (mono-Ru) and heterobimetallic {[}RuCl2(eta(6)-p-cymene)]{[}(mu-Schiff-pip)Ni(PPh3)Cl] (Ru-Ni) complexes were successfully synthesized. They were fully characterized by FTIR, UV-Vis, and NMR spectroscopic studies, elemental analysis, cyclic voltammetry and computational studies. Complex Ru-Ni was additionally characterized by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The polynorbornene (polyNBE) syntheses via ROMP using mono-Ru and Ru-Ni as pre-catalysts in the presence of ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) were evaluated at different {[}EDA]/{[}Ru] ratios, time periods (5-60 min) and temperatures (25 and 50 degrees C). Higher yields of polyNBE were obtained using {[}NBE]/{[}Ru] = 5000 and 5 mu L of EDA at 50 degrees C for 60 min. Under these conditions, mono-Ru exhibited higher catalytic activity than Ru-Ni, reaching 50 and 40% yield, respectively. Hence, a strong steric influence of Ru-Ni on the catalytic activity was demonstrated. The order of magnitude of 10(5) g mol(-1) was measured by SEC for M-n and D values ranging from 1.64 to 3.70 for mono-Ru and from 1.26 to 2.40 for Ru-Ni. The catalytic activity of Ru-Ni on ethylene polymerization was evaluated at different {[}Al]/{[}Ni] ratios, temperatures (20-60 degrees C) and reaction times (3-12 h) using MAO as the co-catalyst. Ru-Ni was able to provide an activity of 71.40 kg PE (mol Ni)(-1) h(-1) at 40 degrees C after 3 h in a {[}Al]/{[}Ni] molar ratio of 2100, 7 mu mol of catalyst in 25 mL of toluene and 116 psi ethylene pressure.
