21. DFT calculation has been widely used for structural determination of transition metal complexes, c.f; L. Deng, T. Zieglar, T. K. Woo, P. Margl, and L. Fan, Organometallics, 17, 3240 (1998). All calculations were performed using gradient corrected density functional method BLYP, by means of the Amsterdam Density Functional (ADF) program. We used the triple -ζ basis set on the metal center, the double-ζ basis sel on the Cl, N and O atoms, and the single-ζ basis set on the other atoms.

23. General polymerization procedure; Flow of ethylene gas (100 L/h) was charged into 250 ml of toluene at 25 °C. To this solution, MAO (Albemarle MAO. 1.2mmol/ml of a toluene solution) and a toluene solution of a complex was added at designated polymerization temperature. After the prescribed time, 25 ml of isobutanol was added to terminate the polymerization.
