First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A complex which is represented by the following general formula (1):
[MX n Y 4-n ]  (1)

wherein M represents hafnium or zirconium, X represents a ligand comprising a conjugate base of an acid which has an acid dissociation constant pKa of 3.8 or less and has a polymerizable group, Y represents a ligand having no polymerizable group, and n represents an integer of 1 to 4.

2 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein the acid dissociation constant pKa of the acid is 2.8 or less.

3 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein X in the formula (1) is a ligand comprising a conjugate base represented by general formula (2) shown below:
R 1 —Y 1 —SO 3 ⊖   (2)

wherein R 1 represents a polymerizable group having a group selected from groups (X-01) to (X-07) shown below, and Y 1 represents a divalent linking group or a single bond;

wherein R represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms or a halogenated alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, Ar represents an aromatic hydrocarbon group, n represents an integer of 0 to 2, and * represents a valence bond.

4 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein X in the formula (1) is a ligand comprising a conjugate base selected from the group consisting of a conjugate base of 3-(methacryloyloxy)-1-propanesulfonic acid, a conjugate base of 3-(acryloyloxy)-1-propanesulfonic acid, a conjugated base of vinylsulfonic acid, and a conjugated base of styrenesulfonic acid.

5 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein X in the formula (1) is a ligand comprising a conjugate base represented by general formula (3) shown below:
R 2 —Y 2 —COO ⊖   (3)

wherein, in formula (3), R 2 represents a polymerizable group having a group selected from (X-01) to (X-07) shown below, and Y 2 represents a divalent linking group or a single bond:

wherein R represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms or a halogenated alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, Ar represents an aromatic hydrocarbon group, n represents an integer of 0 to 2, and * represents a valence bond.

6 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein X in the formula (1) is a ligand comprising a conjugate base selected from the group consisting of a conjugate base of carboxymethyl methacrylate, and a conjugate base of carboxymethyl acrylate.

7 . The complex according to claim 1 , wherein M represents hafnium.
