Abstract

Terpolymers of carbon monoxide with ethylene and styrene are synthesized in the presence of supported palladium catalyst in toluene and heptane medium for the first time. The terpolymerization rate exceeds the rate of carbon monoxide and ethylene copolymerization. The maximum terpolymer yield amounts 7.9 g per g of supported catalyst per hour or 321 g per g of palladium per hour. The influence of reaction temperature, pressure, 1.4-benzoquinone amount and co-monomers mole ratio on the yield and the composition of terpolymer have been studied. The NMR 13C data obtained testify to a distribution of ethylene and styrene units in terpolymer with the predominance of short blocks at equal contents of comonomer units.
