Abstract
The copolymers of carbon monoxide with olefins are of considerable importance from several different standpoints. These include the low price and ready availability of carbon monoxide, the enhanced photo-degradability of the copolymers, and their easy chemical conversion to other classes of functionalized polymers. This review summarizes the chemistry involved in the synthesis, characterization, degradation and the derivatization of the copolymers. In addition, work on the spectral characterization of the copolymers have been cited.
