A catalyst composition useful in the preparation of a polymer composition includes a Group VIII metal and a phosphorus bidentate ligand of the general formula (R2)(R4)P-R3-P(R2)(R4) wherein R2 and R4 are optionally polar substituted alkyl groups, differing from each other in carbon number, and wherein R3 is a divalent organic bridging group which contains four atoms. Such catalyst compositions are particularly useful for preparing copolymers of carbon monoxide with alpha -olefins having at least three carbon atoms.
