Abstract
1 min read
A phenylacetylene carrying a chiral L-alanine dipeptide moiety has been synthesized, and it has been polymerized by (2,5-norbornadiene)rhodium(I) chloride dimmer {[Rh(nbd)Cl]2} into a high-molecular-weight polymer in a high yield. The polymer chain takes a helical conformation with preferred handedness, which can be tuned by the solvent and temperature.
