Popis: Bis(γ-ethoxypropyl)dichlorosilane was synthetized by hydrosilylation of dichlorosilane. Polymerization yielded monomodal high molecular weight poly[bis(γ-ethoxypropyl)silylene] (PDEPS). PDEPS is soluble in alcohols with longer alkyl groups end acetone. Bulk PDEPS exhibits a blue shift of λ max from 362 to 315 nm correleted with the mesomorphic transition occurring at 25°C. Above 25°C, PDEPS transforms into a highly mobile columnerlike mesophase. Transition enthalpy, wavelength of the absorption maximum, and 29 Si MAS CP solid-state NMR indicate that PDEPS crystallizes in a disturbed all-trans-structure. In addition to PDEPS, some copolymers with di-n-hexyl-substituted units were studied
