Resumo:
A modified Wittig polycondensation was developed by replacing the bulky -PPh3 with -PBu3 ylide. Our studies suggested that the modified polymerization dramatically enhances trans-selectivity due to the decreased 1.3-steric interaction between butyl chain and triphenylamine group, together with the 1,2-steric interaction between the phenyl ring of the ylide and the triphenylamine group of the aldehyde. Moreover, the method also enhances high-molecular weight products by increasing the activity and solubility of the ylide.
