Synthesis and characterization of poly (phenyl vinyl sulfoxide) and its coolymers-a soluble precursor to polyacetylene

摘要

Poly (phenyl vinyl sulfoxide)(PVSO) is a soluble precursor to polyacetylene (PA). Upon thermal elimination, the thermally labile PVSO can be readily converted to PA. Both PVSO and its copolymers can be synthesized via anionic polymerization in which stereoregular polymers with controlled molecular weight, narrow polydispersity, and known chemical composition distribution can be prepared.
