Up to 94% yields of isotactic pentads are achieved in the polymerization of propene with the ansa ‐zirconocene catalysts 1 . It emerges that bulky substituents are decisive for the stereoselectivity, while α‐substituents are decisive for the regioselectivity. Moreover, α‐substituents favor the synthesis of long chains ( M w up to 9190). R 1 t Bu, i Pr; R 2 H. Me; μ‐X Me 2 CCMe 2 , Me 2 Si.
