The MOD-MOD diad was observed at 40.1-40.6 ppm, the propene-MOD or MOD-propene diad at 42.5-43.5 ppm, and the propene-propene diad at 45.2-46.5 ppm. The MOD-MOD diad was only observed if the level of incorporated MOD was higher than 13 mol %. The intensity of this MOD-MOD diad was lower by a factor of 4-6 compared to the propene-MOD or MOD-propene diads.
