The catalytic copolymerization of ethene with carbon monoxide efficiently carried out in water/dichloromethane/sodium dodecylsulfate emulsion

摘要

The CO-ethene copolymerization has been efficiently carried out in the water/CH2Cl2 emulsion by using water insolvablePd(II) complexes. By using the surfactant SDS very high molecular weight copolymers have been obtained withhigh productivity (ca. 13,000 g/(gPd.h)).
