The Challenge of Selectivity in Ethylene Oligomerization: Ligand Design and Metal Valence States

Catalytic ethylene oligomerization is a well understood industrially viable process. The large majority of scientific literature and patents concerning this process has been developed with the use of chromium catalysts. Commercial systems producing selective tri/tetramerization, non-selective oligom...
