Abstract

Abstract Macromolecule-copper(I) chloride complexes have been prepared for the separation of carbon monoxide and ethylene from gas mixtures with hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, and water. A toluene solution of a polystyrene-aluminum copper(I) chloride complex can separate carbon monoxide selectively and retains this function even on contact with gas containing water. Strong charge-transfer absorption bands have been found in the 380-500 nm region for the toluene solution of polystyrene-aluminum copper(I) chloride complex. A solution of 1, 3-diphenylpropane-aluminum copper(I) chloride complex also exhibits similar absorption bands. A continuous variation plot using the chemical shift change in 13C-NMR shows a 1:1 interaction between 1,3-diphenylpropane and aluminum copper(I) chloride. These results suggest a two-way interaction between the adjacent phenyl groups of polystyrene and aluminum copper(I) chloride. A resin bead of crosslinked polystyrene-aluminum copper(I) chloride complex has been ...
