Abstract
An aromatic hydrocarbon modified soluble mixed aluminum hydrocarbyl-Lewis base co-catalyst composition comprising (i) at least two different classes of aluminum hydrocarbyls the first being an aluminum hydrocarbyl halide, the second being an aluminum hydrocarbyl hydride and/or aluminum trialkyl and (ii) at least one Lewis base represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein each Y can be --OR', --NR.sub.2 and R' with the proviso that at least two be --OR' or --NR.sub.2, Z is an alkylene radical forming a 5 or 6 membered ring with the carbonyldioxy group or Z is alkyl substituted alkylene group wherein the alkyl radical can have from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, R is an aryl, allyl or alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms and R' is an alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or aralkyl radical having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms. The co-catalyst is employed with a titanium halide catalyst for the polymerization of olefins to obtain a advantageous balance of catalytic activity and polymer product stereoregularity.
