The polymerization behavior of dialkylaminoethyl-functionalized ansa-zirconocene dichlorides for ethylene polymerization was studied in the temperature region of 90-30 °C. At high temperatures, polyethylene with unimodal distribution (pdi = 4.2) was obtained, and at low temperatures, broad molecular weight distribution (pdi = 12.6) with more contribution from high molecular weight polymer was obtained.
