Abstract: Disclosed are: a solid polymethylaluminoxane composition which does not utilize silica or the like, has the form of relatively fine particles, has more uniform particle sizes, and exhibits a high polymerization activity when used in the preparation of an olefin polymer; a process for producing the solid polymethylaluminoxane composition; a polymerization catalyst; and a process for producing an olefin polymer.
Abstract: A polymethylaluminoxane preparation exhibiting excellent storage stability with a high yield is provided. A polymethylaluminoxane preparation is formed by thermal decomposition of an alkylaluminum compound having an aluminum-oxygen-carbon bond, the alkylaluminum compound being formed by a reaction between trimethylaluminum and an oxygen-containing organic compound.
Abstract: The invention provides a catalyst composition for use in a cross-coupling reaction containing an iron or cobalt fluoride and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring compound represented by General Formula (1A) or (1B), wherein R1 and R2 are same or different, and represent substituted or unsubstituted aryl group etc.; and R3 and R4 are same or different, and represent hydrogen etc., represents a single bond or a double bond, and X? represents a monovalent anion. The invention also provides a method for producing a cross-coupling compound by reacting an organic magnesium compound with an organic halogen compound in the presence of the catalyst composition.
Abstract: A solid organometallic compound novel filled container stably supplies an apparatus for vapor phase epitaxial growth such as an MOCVD apparatus with a solid organometallic compound over a long term. The solid organometallic compound-filled container has a carrier gas inlet and a carrier gas outlet. The interior of the filled container is separated into a plurality of vertical compartments. A carrier gas introduced via the carrier gas inlet flows through each of the vertical compartments and is then discharged via the carrier gas outlet.
Abstract: An olefin polymerization catalyst is provided which makes use of a modified methylaluminoxane and thus stably exhibits an activity equivalent to, or higher than, the activity achieved by polymethylaluminoxane. Specifically, the olefin polymerization catalyst is in the form of a modified methylaluminoxane preparation prepared from: an organoaluminum compound represented by the following general formula (I): R1mAlX3-m??(I) wherein R1 represents a straight-chained or branched hydrocarbon group selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkenyl, and aryl groups having 2 to 20 carbon atoms; X represents a hydrogen atom, halogen atom, alkoxy group, or allyloxy group; and 0<m?3; and trimethyl aluminum, wherein the mole fraction of methyl group of the aluminoxane unit with respect to the total number of moles of the hydrocarbon group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms and methyl group present in the modified methylaluminoxane preparation is 65 mol % or greater.
