New ligands, compositions, metal-ligand complexes and arrays with bridged bis-aromatic
ligands are disclosed that catalyze the polymerization of monomers into polymers.
These catalysts with metal centers have high performance characteristics, including
higher comonomer incorporation into ethylene/olefin copolymers, where such olefins
are for example, 1-octene, propylene or styrene. The catalysts also polymerize
propylene into isotactic polypropylene.
