Using transition metal complexes to catalyse ethylene oligomerization is an important route for preparing α-olefins. The partially catalytic systems have entered the stage of pilot and industrial production. However
the recent researches have suggested that the oligomerization products of some transition metal catalysts in toluene solvent may react with toluene directly as Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction
which could open a new way for the production of alkylbenzene. This paper reviews the progress of Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction in ethylene oligomerization in recent years. The influence of the structure of catalysts
catalytic system and process conditions on the alkylation reaction is described in detail. Meanwhile
it gives the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction process in ethylene oligomerization
which would be of great significance to design the catalysts that could catalyse ethylene oligomerization to make mixed alkylbenzenes.
