Summary: The telomerization of 10‐undecenol with alkyl hydrogenphosphonate was studied in order to synthesize telomers of different molecular weights. The study showed that telomers from 10‐undecenol could be obtained despite the fact that the double bond has a low reactivity. The kinetic constant Kp2/KTe was determined to be 7 × 10?4 l · mol?1 · s?1 at 135 °C and the transfer constant CT was 0.057. These values are normal for a low activity telogen such as hydrogenphosphonate and for slightly reactive monomers like 10‐undecenol.
