1. An adduct comprising MgCl2.(EtOH)m(ROH)n(H2O)p wherein
R is a C1-C15 hydrocarbon group excluding ethyl, optionally substituted with at least one group comprising a heteroatom;
n and m are indexes higher than 0, satisfying the equations (n+m)≧0.7 and n/(n+m) ranges from 0.1 to 0.4;
and p is a number ranging from 0 to 0.7 with the proviso that when R is methyl and (n+m) is in the range of 0.7 to 1, the value of n/(n+m) ranges from 0.05 to 0.45.
