Abstract
In this review, state-of-the-art non-Cp type olefin polymerization catalysts is described from the coordination number as well as the ligand type points of view to emphasize their structural characteristics. Development of homogeneous metallocene catalysts for olefin polymerization has been briefly overviewed prior to detailed examination of the chemistry of non-Cp type homogeneous catalytic systems. In order to emphasize the structural characteristics of non-Cp catalysts, they were initially classified according to the coordination numbers of 4-7 and then further subclassified according to the ligand types. Over 100 line drawings and 200 references are utilized.
