Abstract
The simple molecular orbital method is employed to calculate transitionβstate conjugation energies which correlate well with observed monomer reactivity ratios. An examination of the model discloses the reasons it is possible to neglect both electronic repulsion and the fact that transitionβstate separations are not the same for all monomerradical pairs. The parameters, Q and e, of the AlfreyβPrice treatment are compared to quantities calculated by the molecular orbital method.

The results of propylene--chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymerizations, carried out with a boron alkyl catalytic system at temperatures in the range -40 Β° to 40 Β°, are reported. The monomer reactivity ratios of both monomers have been evaluated by a simplified nonlinear least squares method. The probab
