Abstract
Abstract: Isocyanides polymerize under the catalytic activity of Ni (I1) to the corresponding poly (is0cyanides): nRN+= C-E& [RN= C<],. The polymers are of the rigid-rod type, and their molecules have a helical configuration as a result of hindered rotation in their carbon main chains. Upon polymerization, achiral isocyanides generally form a racemic mixture of left- and right-handed helices, whereas in the case of an optically active isocyanide one screw ...
