Abstract/Summary:
Alternating ethylene-carbon monoxide copolymer (E-CO copolymer) was prepared by direct polymerization of carbon monoxide with ethylene, using (Pd(CH;Palladium complexes--Pd(2,6-;One of these highly selective catalysts, Pd(PPh;The kinetics of the p-DVB polymerization catalyzed by 2 and the styrene dimerization and ;Rate = k (Olefin) ;Olefin: styrene, ;Pd(II): 1 or 2, total Pd(II) species in solution;m: 0.6-0.7 in the styrene dimerization and p-DVB polymerization reaction,;2.2 in the ;Quantitative analysis shows that m is dependent on the equilibria involving the interactions between the cationic metal species and its counteranion. Fractional order m varies with the change in the dissociation constants of BF...
