The polymerization methods used for the synthesized monomers are anionic, and radical polymerization with t-BuLi and AIBN as initiators for vinyl-PCP 3, the same radical procedure for Nacetyl-amino-vinyl-PCP 6 and a rhodium-catalyzed diazo polymerization for the C1-polymer made from diazo acetyl-4-methyl-PCP 9 were optimized (Figure ). Initial polymerization attempts resulted in light molecular weight polymers, with the average molecular weight and polydispersity, as summarized in Table . The chirality of the polymers has been proofed by circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD), as shown for poly(vinyl-PCP) (anionic) in Figure .
