Abstract
Copolymerization of styrene and 1โbutene was first conducted at 50ยฐC with a novel Ti catalyst by using Al(iBu)~3~ (iBu = isobutyl) as cocatalyst. The Ti catalyst is composed of MgCl~2~/TiCl~4~/PhCOOEt/Ph~2~SiCl~2~/SiCl~4~/NdCl~x~(OR)~y~/Al(iBu)~3~ (assigned as SNโ1 catalyst), which gave mixtures of poly(1โbutene), polystyrene, and a copolymer of both monomers. The catalytic efficiency is 1 200 โ 4 000 g~p~/(g~Ti~ ยท h). The monomer reactivity ratios were estimated to be r~s~ = 0.47 and r~b~ = 29.1. The polymers produced were fractionated successively, and a styreneโ1โbutene copolymer was obtained which was characterized in detail.
