Copolymers of styrene and a styrene derivative having a C-s symmetrical ligand moiety were synthesized and used as the carrier for the synthesis of supported-type zirconocene catalysts. Propene polymerization was conducted using the resulting catalyst together with methylalumoxane (MAO), which gave syndiotactic polypropene. The productivity of the polymer-supported catalyst (4010 kg PP (mel Zr)(-1) for 24h) was however, very low compared to that of the corresponding homogeneous catalyst (9130 kg PP (mel Zr)(-1) for 20 min).
