Summary

Poly(2-vinyl-5-methyl thiophene) was synthesized via free radical initiation. The 300 MHz 1H-NMR and 75.5 MHz 13C-NMR spectra were recorded and analyzed in terms of polymer stereochemistry. The spectra were similar to those of other poly(2-vinyl thiophenes) and were interpreted in a like fashion. The poly(2-vinyl-2-methyl thiophene) was found to be an atactic polymer.
