Abstract
All-carbon ladder polymers with extended pi. systems are of interest f or electroluminescence and photovoltaics applications. The synthesis o f two new ladder polymers (e.g, see Figure) exhibiting relatively high molecular weights and pronounced film-forming abilities, is reported. It is also shown that the degree of saturation in these polymers can be chemically closely controlled.
