Alkoxide initiation of anionic polymerization of masked disilenes to polysilanes
摘要:
The polymerization of masked disilenes initiated by potassium alkoxides in the presence of cryptand[2.2.2] in benzene proceeded in a living manner, especially when using potassium (-)-menthoxide. The molecular weights of the polysilanes thus obtained were in good agreement with the calculated values. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
