dc.description.abstractA series of five cobalt(II) complexes, dichloro-bis(1-benzyl-benzimidazole)-cobalt(II) (1a), dichloro-bis[1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-benzimidazole]-cobalt(II) (1b), dichloro-bis((Z)-1-styryl-benzimidazole)-cobalt(II) (1c), dichloro-bis[(Z)-1-(2-fluorostyryl)-benzimidazole]-cobalt(II) (1d) and dichloro-bis(1-cinnamyl-benzimidazole)-cobalt(II) (1e), were evaluated in ethylene dimerization. Four of these complexes were described for the first time and fully characterized by IR, elemental analysis, mass and NMR spectroscopy. In the solid state, the cobalt atom exhibited a typical tetrahedral geometry and was found to be coordinated to two chlorine atoms and two benzimidazole rings. In the presence of 20 bar of ethylene and diethylaluminium chloride as a co-catalyst, the complex with styryl substituents on the benzimidazole rings, complex 1c, exhibited the highest activity with a turnover frequency of 3430 mol(ethylene)mol(Co)-1h-1.
