Abstract: The present invention relates to novel oxygen-containing organoaluminium complexes of the general formula (I) in which R1, independently of one another, denote branched or unbranched C1-C7-alkyl, -cycloalkyl, -alkenyl, -cycloalkenyl, -aryl or -alkynyl; R2 denotes unsubstituted, mono- or polyalkylated and/or mono- or polyfluorinated aromatic hydrocarbons from the group R3, R4, independently of one another, denote CH2, CF2 or C(R1)2; independently of one another, m denotes 0, 1, 2 n denotes 0, 1, 2. These compounds can serve as cocatalysts in olefinic polymerisation reactions. In particular, they can be employed for the preparation of novel Ziegler-Natta catalysts having improved properties, in particular having higher activities compared with conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts with AlEt3, as cocatalyst, or of novel coordination catalyst systems which have higher activities than conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts, even at low temperatures, such as 60° C., and a pressure of 2 bar.

Abstract: Organometallic aluminum compounds of the general formula (I)
where
X1 is NH, NH2*, NH—A*, N—A, N(A)2*, O, OA*, O-Aryl*, S, SA*, P, P(A)2* or a single bond,
X2 is NH, N—A, O, S, PA or X1 coordinated to Al(R1)3, or a single bond,
R1 is H; Hal if n=0; A which may be covalently bound to Al; Si(A)3 if X1=O,
R2 is A or divalent aryl groups defined note particularly below or divalent unsaturated aliphatic groups defined more particularly below,
R3 and R4 are, independently of one another, a bond or R2 or Si(A)3 or Si(A)2,
Z1 is a bond or H bound to R2,
Z2 is a bond or H bound to R2 or R3,
A is branched or unbranched C1-C7-alkyl, C1-C7-alkylidene or C1-C7-alkenylidene,
