A Wurtz-type reductive coupling reaction of dichlorophenyl-α-naphthylsilane was carried out in a mixture of toluene and o-xylene in the presence of sodium and a catalytic amount of mercury; α,ω-dichlorophenyl-α-naphthylsilylenes of various degrees of polymerization were obtained. Through the hydrolysis of α,ω-dichlorophenyl-α-naphthylsilylenes, corresponding dihydroxy compounds were obtained. The heterofunctional polycondensation of α,ω-dihydroxyphenyl-α-naphthylsilylenes with α,ω-dichlorodimethylsilylenes was performed both without amines and in the presence of amines. Heterofunctional polycondensation without amines did not proceed with the formation of high molecular weight compounds because the cleavage of both &tbond; Si&bond;Si&tbond; and &tbond;Si&bond;O&bond;Si&tbond; bonds took place during condensation. In the presence of amines, polysilylenesilylene copolymers were obtained. The synthesized copolymers were investigated with gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, roentgenography, and thermogravimetry. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
