Process for the preparation of substituted norbornene derivatives

TLDR
In this article, a mono or dialkyl substituted norbornenes or cyclic norbornene derivatives are prepared by condensing an appropriate olefin or an ethylenically unsaturated alicyclic compound with dicyclopentadiene or cyclopentadene at an elevated temperature and pressure in the presence of a chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent.

Method for enhancing the polymerization activity of crude cycloolefin monomers for bulk polymerization

Abstract: A process for enhancing the polymerization activity of mixtures of one or more cycloolefin monomers is provided by treatment with heat. This process can be easily incorporated into ring-opening, bulk polymerization methods and methods which form high molecular weight monomers. Enhancing the polymerization activity of crude mixtures of cycloolefin monomers by this process permits polymers having higher glass transition temperatures and higher heat distortion temperatures to be produced with greater economy.
