The present invention relates to a novel ligand derived from a tetrahydroquinoline derivative, and a transition metal compound prepared using the ligand, where an amido ligand is linked to an ortho-phenylene ligand to form a condensed ring and a 5-membered cyclic pi-ligand linked to the ortho-phenylene ligand is fused with a heterocyclic thiophene ligand. Compared with the catalysts not fused with a heterocyclic thiophene ligand, the transition metal compound of the present invention as activated with a co-catalyst has higher catalytic activity in olefin polymerization and provides a polymer with higher molecular weight.

The present invention relates to a supported catalyst for olefin polymerization to which a novel transition metal compound and a co-catalyst compound are bound, and a preparation method for polyolefin using the supported catalyst. The transition metal compound bound to the catalyst of the present invention provides high activity for olefin-based monomers in heterogeneous reaction as well as in homogeneous system. Particularly, a polyolefin with higher molecular weight can be prepared by using the supported catalyst containing the transition metal compound bound to a support, rather than using the novel transition metal compound in a non-supported status, or the conventional transition metal compound in a supported or non-supported status.
