METALLOCENE COMPOSITIONS

This invention relates to metallocene compositions and their use in the preparation of catalyst systems for olefin polymerization, particularly propylene polymerization. In one embodiment, the metallocenes of the present invention may be represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein: M is a metal of Group 4, 5, or 6 of the Periodic Table; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are identical or different, and are one of a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkoxy group, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryloxy group, a C.sub.2 -C.sub.40 alkenyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 arylalkyl group a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 alkylaryl group, a C.sub.8 -C.sub.40 arylalkenyl group, or a halogen atom, or are a conjugated diene which is optionally substituted with one or more hydrocarbyl, tri(hydrocarbyl)silyl groups or tri(hydrocarbyl)silylhydrocarbyl groups, said diene having up to 30 atoms not counting hydrogen; R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are identical or different, are one of a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group, which may be halogenated, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group, which may be halogenated, a C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alkenyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 -arylalkyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 alkylaryl group, a C.sub.8 -C.sub.40 arylalkenyl group, a --NR.sub.2.sup.15, --SR.sup.15, --OR.sup.15, --OSiR.sub.3.sup.15 or --PR.sub.2.sup.15 radical, wherein: R.sup.15 is one of a halogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group, or a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group; R.sup.7 is ##STR2## wherein: R.sup.17 to R.sup.24 are as defined for R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, or two or more adjacent radicals R.sup.17 to R.sup.24, including R.sup.20 and R.sup.21, together with the atoms connecting them form one or more rings; M.sup.2 is carbon, silicon, germanium or tin; the radicals R.sup.3, R.sup.4, and R.sup.10 are identical or different and have the meanings stated for R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 ; or two adjacent R.sup.10 radicals can be joined together to form a ring system. Alkyl refers to straight or branched chain substituents. Halogen (halogenated) refers to fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine atoms, preferably fluorine or chlorine. The metallocene compositions may also be represented by the formula: ##STR3## wherein: M.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum and tungsten; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are identical or different, and are one of a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkoxy group, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryloxy group, a C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alkenyl group, a C.sub.2 -C.sub.40 alkenyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 arylalkyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 alkylaryl group, a C.sub.8 -C.sub.40 arylalkenyl group, an OH group or a halogen atom, or are a conjugated diene which is optionally substituted with one or more hydrocaxbyl, tri(hydrocarbyl)silyl groups or hydrocarbyl, tri(hydrocarbyl)silylhydrocarbyl groups, said diene having up to 30 atoms not counting hydrogen; R.sup.3 are identical or different and are each a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group which may be halogenated, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group which may be halogenated, a C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alkenyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 -arylalkyl group, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.40 alkylaryl group, a C.sub.8 -C.sub.40 arylalkenyl group, a --NR'.sub.2, --SR', --OR', --OSiR'.sub.3 or --PR'.sub.2 radical, wherein: R' is one of a halogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl group, or a C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl group; preferably R.sup.3 is not a hydrogen atom; R.sup.13 is represented by the formula: ##STR4## wherein: R.sup.17 to R.sup.24 are as defined for R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, or two or more adjacent radicals R.sup.17 to R.sup.24, including R.sup.20 and R.sup.21, together with the atoms connecting them form one or more rings; preferably, R.sup.17 to R.sup.24 are hydrogen; M.sup.2 is carbon, silicon, germanium or tin, preferably silicon; and R.sup.8, R.sup.9, R.sup.10, R.sup.11 and R.sup.12 are identical or different and have the meanings stated for R.sup.4 to R.sup.7.
