       As shown earlier, in the complete absence of CO, C₂H₄ with H₂, under catalytic conditions, yields only C₂H₆, but in the presence of CO polymers and hydropolymers of odd and even number C atom hydrocarbons are formed.  A similar reaction between propene and 5.7-7.0% CO at 190° and atmospheric pressure of H₂ with the previously described catalyst gives 85-90% conversion of the propene, of which 35% is C₃H₈; the yield of liquid condensate is 550-600 ml. per m.³.  The yield of butylenes is 2.7%, that of C₄H₁₀ 2.6%.  The condensate freed of C₃ and C₄ products boils over a very wide range (30°-325°) and contains about 35% unsaturates, mostly of lower molecular weights.  After hydrogenation over Raney Ni 75% of the condensate B. 28°-340°, and contains about 12-14% each of C₅, C₇, C₈, and C₉ products, about 20% C₆.  The C₅-C₆ fractions contain some branched-chain products (Raman method), possibly 2- and 3-methylpentane, while the rest are n-hydrocarbons C₅-C₇.
