Summary
Vinylchloride has been polymerized in THF by t-butylmagnesiumchloride as an initiator. Saturated oligomers of DP=1−3 have been prepared and analyzed by joint HPLC and C-13 nmr spectroscopy. The structure of the oligomers confirm a regular head-to-tail enchainment of the monomer during initiation and propagation.
