Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 20 words
The process as defined in claim 1 in which said 1,2-dialkoxybenzene is introduced into said contact in its unreacted form.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process as defined in claim 1 in whicH said 1,2-dialkoxybenzene is introduced into said contact as the reaction product of said 1,2-dialkoxybenzene and said organolithium compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
The process as defined in claim 1 in which said 1,2-dialkoxybenzene is introduced into said contact in an amount from about 0.05 to about 1.5 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said monomers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
The process as defined in claim 3 in which said reaction product is produced by reacting from about 0.75 to about 2 moles of said organolithium compound with about 1 mole of said 1,2-dialkoxybenzene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 44 words
The process as defined in claim 1 in which butadiene and styrene are polymerized in contact with butyllithium and 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, said 1,2-dimethoxybenzene being present in an amount from about 0.069 to about 1.38 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said monomers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
The process as defined in claim 2 in which butadiene and styrene are polymerized in contact with butyllithium and 1,2-diethoxybenzene, said 1,2-diethoxybenzene being present in an amount from about 0.03 to about 0.66 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said monomers.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 45 words
The process as defined in claim 3 in which butadiene and styrene are polymerized in contact with butyllithium and 1,2-dimethoxybenzene, said 1,2-dimethoxybenzene being introduced into said reaction as the reaction product of from about 0.75 to about 2 moles of butyllithium per mole of 1,2-dimethoxybenzene.
