Abstract
A process for the addition of pendant groups to polyarylenes comprises the steps of charging a reaction vessel with a solution of a polyarylene and a Friedel-Crafts catalysts; said polyarylene having the formula ##STR1## adding to the reaction vessel a pendant forming group G, wherein G is selected from the group consisting of sulfonyl halides, sulfonamide halides, alkylhalides, acylhalides and phosphorus acid halides; heating the contents of the reaction vessel to form a substituted polyarylene having the formula ##STR2## and thereafter recovering the substituted polyarylene. The substituted polyarylenes are novel and have utility as a semipermeable membrane and a process for the separation of gases therewith is also provided.
