Abstract

Abstract Linear alternating polymers of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon are produced in the presence of a novel catalyst composition formed from a palladium compound, the anion of a non-hydrohalogenic acid having a pKa less about 4 and an orthosubstitued phenyl phosphine.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
In the process of producing a linear alternating polymer of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon in the presence of a catalyst composition formed from a palladium compound and a phosphine ligand, the improvement which comprises employing in the catalyst composition the anion of a non-hydrohalogenic acid having a pKa less than about 4 and an ortho-substituted triphenylphosphine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 61 words
In the process of producing a linear alternating polymer of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon in the presence of a catalyst composition formed from a palladium compound and a phosphine ligand, the improvement which comprises employing in the catalyst composition the anion of a non-hydrohalogenic acid having a pKa less than about 4 and an ortho-substituted triphenylphosphine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 45 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the ortho-substituted triphenylphosphine is represented by the formula ##STR2## wherein R is alkyl, halo, cyano, hydroxy, alkoxy or carbalkoxy and R' is hydrogen or taken together with R form a hydrocarbon bridge of from 2 to 4 carbons inclusive.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the anion is the anion of trifluoroacetic acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the phosphine is tri(o-tolyl)phosphine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the phosphine is tri(2-methoxyphenyl)phosphine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the phosphine is tri(1-naphthyl)phosphine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the anion is the anion of p-toluenesulfonic acid.
