Description
Summary:The discovery of facile catalytic alternating alkene/carbon monoxide copolymerization has significantly impacted the areas of polymer science, organometallic chemistry, and catalysis. Highly active systems that allow the directed synthesis of compounds ranging from low molecular weight esters, ketones and aldehydes to high molecular weight copolymers are now available. In addition, copolymerizations with high regio, stereo and enantioselectivity have been achieved. Catalytic Synthesis of Alkene-Carbon Monoxide Copolymers and Cooligomers is written by the foremost researchers in the field and provides the first comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the subject. The book draws on journal and patent literature available up to the middle of 2002, as well as hitherto unpublished results. This book is of interest to academic and industrial chemists involved with transition metal catalysis, organometallic chemistry, petrochemicals, and polymeric materials.
