A catalyst is provided which is useful for coupling aryl halides or aryl sulfonates to produce biaryls or polyaryls. The catalyst composition is formed by mixing together in an anhydrous aprotic solvent a nickel compound or nickel complex, a phosphite ligand, and a reducing metal which can be aluminum, magnesium, or zinc or the like.

A soluble rigid-rod macromonomer is provided which has the following formula: ##STR1## wherein each G.sub.1, G.sub.2, G.sub.3, and G.sub.4, on each monomer unit, independently, is H or a solubilizing side group, provided that at least one monomer unit has at least one solubilizing side group. The solubilizing side groups provide the macromonomers with a solubility of at least 0.5% by weight in the solvent system from which they are formed. E is a reactive end group, and the macromonomer has an average degree of polymerization, DP.sub.n, greater than 6. Such macromonomers are chemically incorporated into polymer systems to provide stronger stiffened polymers.

摘要:
High-performance polymers having a rigid-rod backbone comprising a chain length of at least 25 organic monomer units joined together by covalent bonds wherein at least about 95% of the bonds are substantially parallel; and solubilizing organic groups attached to at least 1% of the monomer units. The polymers are prepared in a solvent system which is a solvent for both the monomer starting materials and the rigid-rod polymer product.

A method for preparing isomerically pure 2,5-dichlorobenzophenones in good to high yields is provided. The invention comprises Friedel-Crafts aroylation of 1,4-dichlorobenzene using an aroyl halide or aromatic anhydride and at least one Lewis acid, the latter being present in an amount of at least about 1.1 mole per mole of aroyl halide or aromatic anhydride, preferably about 1.5 moles per mole of aroyl halide or aromatic anhydride and, more preferably, from about 2 to about 2.5 moles of Lewis acid per mole of aroyl halide or aromatic anhydride. Preferably, the molar ratio of 1,4-dichlorobenzene to aroyl halide ranges from about 1.2:1 to about 8:1.
