Notes:
A high resolution carbon-13 NMR study of an ethylene-butene copolymer has yielded a spectrum whose resonances could be assigned to isolated ethyl branches, 1,3-diethyl branching as well as 1,2-diethyl branches resulting from head-to-head butene polymerization. All these structures are present in the same sample. An examination of all the published spectra of low-density (branched) polyethylenes has revealed many examples of heretofore unassigned resonances which can be associated with this latter type of diethyl branching in these polymers. Spin-lattice relaxation times have been determined, when feasible, for the carbon atoms in each of the three branched structures.
