Abstract

Four distinct polymers were isolated from the polymerizations of acenaphthylene initiated by boron trifluoride and n-butyllithium. A syndiotactic or isotactic conformation was assigned to these products on the basis of infrared and NMR evidence. The conformations and reaction details are discussed.
