Claims15
A complex comprising a ligand of formula (I):
- wherein
- each R1, which may be the same or different, is hydrogen, an optionally substituted C1-20 hydrocarbyl group, N(R5)2, silyl, siloxy;
- an optionally substituted heteroaryl group, an optionally substituted heterocyclyl group or two R1 groups on adjacent carbon atoms taken together to form an optionally substituted 5- to 8-membered fused ring;
- each R2, which may be the same or different is hydrogen, is hydrogen, an optionally substituted C1-20 hydrocarbyl group, N(R5)2, silyl, siloxy;
- an optionally substituted heteroaryl group, or an optionally substituted heterocyclyl group;
- R3, which binds the 5-membered ring of the top ligand and to the 6-membered ring of the indenyl group, is —(Si(R5)2)p—, where p is 1 or 2, —(C(R5)2)n— where n is an integer of 2 or more;
- each R4 which are the same or different, is hydrogen, an optionally substituted C1-20 hydrocarbyl group, N(R5)2, silyl, siloxy, an optionally substituted heteroaryl group, an optionally substituted heterocyclyl group or two R4 groups on adjacent carbon atoms taken together form an optionally substituted 5- to 8-membered fused carbon ring;
- each R5, which are the same or different, is hydrogen, an optionally substituted C1-20 hydrocarbyl group, or two R5 groups taken together form an optionally substituted 5- to 8-membered ring;
- a is 0 to 3;
- b is 0 to 3
- c is 0 to 4;
- complexed to a metal ion, M.
