A method for producing a ligand is provided. SOLUTION: Formula: [Chemical 1] Wherein Q is selected from phosphorus, arsenic and antimony; X 1 , X 2 and X 3 are carbon anions; R 15 is —SO 3 , —SO 2 N (R 18 ), —CO 2 , —PO 3 , —AsO 3 , —SiO 2 , —C (CF 3 ) 2 O; R 18 is selected from hydrogen, halogen, hydrocarbyl and substituted hydrocarbyl groups. A ligand synthesis method is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method of complexing a ligand with a late transition metal to form a catalyst complex that catalyzes a polymerization reaction and / or a Heck coupling reaction.
