Abstract
The invention relates to the use of intramolecularly stabilized organometallic compounds as components in coordination catalyst systems, corresponding coordination catalyst systems and processes for the preparation of polymers by coordination polymerization of unsaturated hydrocarbons by catalysed metathesis of alkenes and alkynes using such coordination catalyst systems.

A coordination catalyst system which comprises an intramolecularly stabilized organometallic compound of the formula I
- X.sup.1.sub.1 --M--(Z).sub.m (I),
- wherein
- M is an element selected from the group consisting of Mg, B, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Zn, Ti, Zr and lanthanides,
- l is the number 0, 1, 2 or 3,
- m is the number 1, 2, 3 or 4,
- where l+m corresponds to the oxidation state of M,
- X.sup.1 is CR.sup.1 R.sup.2 R.sup.3, NR.sup.1 R.sup.2 or OR.sup.1,
- R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are H, C.sub.1-6 -alkyl, where, in the case where 1=2, two radicals R.sup.1 together can also form a C.sub.2-6 -alkylene bridge,
- Z is ##STR3## n is the number 0, 1, 2 or 3, X.sup.2 is CH.sub.2, NH or a 5- or 6-membered aromatic, cycloaliphatic or heteroaromatic ring, in each case substituted by Y in the o-position,
- X.sup.3 is CH, N or a 5- or 6-membered aromatic, cycloaliphatic or heteroaromatic ring, in each case di-substituted with Y in the o,o'-positions,
- Y is (CH.sub.2).sub.o --NR.sup.4 R.sup.5, (CH.sub.2).sub.o --PR.sup.4 R.sup.5, (CH.sub.2).sub.o --OR.sup.4, or (CH.sub.2).sub.o --SR.sup.4,
- o is the number 1, 2 or 3, and
- R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are hydrogen or C.sub.1-6 -alkyl,
- with the proviso that in the case where M=B, Al, Ga or In and Z=(CH.sub.2).sub.n --X.sup.2 --Y, m is not l.
