Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An improved process for the preparation of higher aluminum alkyls by a chain growth reaction of an .alpha.-olefin and especially ethylene with a lower molecular weight aluminum alkyl or aluminum hydride uses a catalyst system which comprises at least one of (a) a metallocene of a transition metal and an aluminoxane (b) a cationic transition metal metallocene complex with an inert, non-coordinating anion and, (c) a cationic transition metal metallocene complex with an inert, non-coordinating anion and a hydrocarbylaluminoxane. Higher purity alpha olefins can be recovered by olefin displacement. Alternatively, linear primary alcohols can be produced by oxidation and hydrolysis.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 7, 1992 and granted September 17, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 7, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 7, 2014.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
