The linear low density polyolefins by the copolymerization of ethylene with α-olefin has the advantages of low density, crystallinity and rigidity compared with ordinary polyolefin. But it can hardly formed using rare earth metal catalyst. Therefore, we try to explore the catalytic system for efficient copolymerization of ethylene with α-olefins. Then we found the fluorenyl functional carbene scandium complexes catalyzing this process efficiently.
