<p>A continuous process for producing 5-vinyl-2-norbornene, useful as the raw material of 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene used as a termonomer for EPDM, from a mixture of cyclopentadiene and butadiene or from a mixture of cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene and butadiene by the Diels-Alder reaction which process comprises adding from 10 to 10,000 ppm of N,N-diethylhydroxylamine or 4oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl relative to the total weight of cyclopentadiene and butadiene or of a mixture of cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene and butadiene, continuously introducing the resulting mixture into a pressure reaction vessel, allowing them to react in the absence of any gas phase portion within the said pressure reaction vessel, and continuously withdrawing the reaction product.</p> |
