- the reaction of (A) and (B) resulting in the formation of a carbon-to-carbon bond, said bond including the carbon of at least one ##STR21## group wherein the ratio of (A) to (B) is between 0.5:1 to about 2:1.
- 2. A product as claimed in claim 1 wherein Ar is hydrocarbyl and m is 1 or 2.
- 3. A product as claimed in claim 2 wherein Ar is a benzene nucleus.
- 4. A product as claimed in claim 1 wherein each R is a homo- or interpolymer of ethylene, propylene, butylene or isobutylene.
- 5. A product as claimed in claim 2 wherein each R is a homo- or interpolymer of ethylene, propylene, butylene or isobutylene.
- 6. A product as claimed in claim 3 wherein each R is a homo- or interpolymer of ethylene, propylene, butylene or isobutylene.
- 7. A product as claimed in claim 1 wherein both R' groups are hydrogen atoms.
- 8. A product as claimed in claim 2 wherein both R' groups are hydrogen atoms.
- 9. A product as claimed in claim 3 wherein each R' group is a hydrogen atom.
- 10. A product as claimed in claim 4 wherein both R' groups are hydrogen atoms.
- 11. A product as claimed in claim 1 wherein (B) is an acid or anhydride.
- 12. A product as claimed in claim 3 wherein (B) is an acid or anhydride.
- 13. A product as claimed in claim 6 wherein (B) is an acid or anhydride.
- 14. A product as claimed in claim 7 wherein (B) is an acid or anhydride.
- 15. A product as claimed in claim 10 wherein (B) is an acid or anhydride.
- 16. A product as claimed in claim 11 wherein (B) is maleic anhydride.
- 17. A product as claimed in claim 3 wherein (B) is maleic anhydride.
- 18. A product as claimed in claim 6 wherein (B) is maleic anhydride.
- 19. A product as claimed in claim 10 wherein (B) is maleic anhydride.
- 20. A product as claimed in claim 9 wherein (B) is maleic anhydride.
