Abstract

Chain-bridged poly(acetylene) polymers have previously been synthesized with meta- and para- linkages to the substituents. In this paper, two ortho-chain-bridged poly(cyclooctatetraene) polymers demonstrate the effects of an enforced cis linkage approximately every fourth carbon-carbon double bond in a poly(acetylene)-like polymer.
