The Influence of Substituents in the 3-Position on the Polymerization of Metaphenylenes

© 2018 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim In this manuscript, the influence of the position of the alkoxy-substituents on the polymerization of poly(phenylenes) is investigated. For this purpose, 3-alkoxy-m-phenylene is polymerized using the Kumada catalyst transfer condensative polymerization. Three different catalyst systems are tried, which all resulted in polymer, but with a high dispersity. Additional experiments show that the polymerization proceeds via a noncontrolled chain growth mechanism.
