Abstract

An improved process for the production of linear alternating polymers of carbon monoxide and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon in the presence of a reaction diluent and a catalyst composition formed from a palladium compound, the anion of a strong non-hydrohalogenic acid and a bidentate ligand of phosphorus, nitrogen or sulfur comprises conducting a first polymerization to produce a prepolymer and completing the polymerization at a lower temperature in the presence of sufficient prepolymer to constitute a substantial proportion of the polymerization mixture.
