Herein, we combine for the first time SQUID magnetometry, cw-EPR, THz-EPR, and paramagnetic NMR spectroscopies to study the magnetic properties of a high-spin cobalt(II) heteroscorpionate complex. Complementary information provided by these methods allowed precise determination of the magnetic interaction parameters, thereby removing the ambiguity inherit to single-method studies. We systematically investigate the extent to which information about the magnetic interaction parameters can be deduced from reduced data sets.

A series of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylenes with viscosity-average molecular weights in the range of 1.6⁻5.6 × 10⁶ have been prepared by using a novel Ziegler⁻Natta-type catalytic system-TiCl₄/2,2'-dimethoxy-1,1'-binaphthalene/Et₃Al₂Cl₃/Bu₂Mg at different temperatures () in the range between 10 and 70 °C in toluene.

Catalytic systems containing TiCl₄ or TiCl₃, THF, organomagnesium (-Bu₂Mg) and organoaluminum compounds capable of producing ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were developed. The resulting polymers were characterized by a molecular weight in the range of (1.8⁻7.
