Abstract
The alkylation of transition metal coordination catalyst complexes (such as metallocenes and/or post-metallocenes) in non-polar solvents with high conversion to the dialkylated transition metal coordination catalyst complex may be accomplished by reacting (a) a transition metal coordination catalyst complex comprising a transition metal linked to at least one an anionic donor ligand and at least one leaving group having a non-carbon atom directly linked to the transition metal, (b) an aluminum alkyl, and (c) a fluoride salt at 0° C. to 85° C. in a non-polar solvent to yield an alkylated transition metal coordination catalyst complex.
