Abstract
Abstract Linear alternating copolymers of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon are produced in the presence of novel catalysts formed from a Group VIII metal compound, an anion of a non-hydrohalogenic acid having a pKa above about 2 but below about 4, and certain bidentate ligands of phosphorus.
