The invention relates to a method of producing linear, alternating copolymers from carbon monoxide and an olefinically unsaturated compound with three to twenty carbon atoms or from carbon monoxide and at least two different olefinically unsaturated compounds in an aqueous medium. The inventive method is characterized by carrying out the copolymerization in the presence of a1) metal complexes, b) a solubilizer and optionally c) a hydroxy compound. |
