2-, 3- and 4-Nitrophenyl prop-2-yn-1-yl ethers were polymerized with PdCl2 in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) giving brown polymers soluble in DMF, dimethyl sulfoxide and N-methylpyrrolidone. Broad (mostly bimodal) molecular weight distributions were observed by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) with maxima at molecular weight of about 4 . 103 and 1 . 105. With the same catalyst, 3-diethylaminophenyl prop-2-yn-1-yl ether gave predominantly low molecular weight homopolymer (Mn = 4 200) soluble in DMF, N-methylpyrrolidone, CHCl3 and tetrahydrofuran-soluble copolymers with 4-nitrophenyl prop-2-yn-1-yl ether (Mn about 3 000). IR, NMR and UV-VIS spectra of prepared polymers and copolymers proved the structure to consist of the polyene-type main chain with phenoxymethyl pendant groups bearing nitro or diethylamino substituents.
