RT Journal Article T1 Poly(phenylacetylene) Amines: A General Route to Water-Soluble Helical Polyamines A1 Suárez Picado, Esteban A1 Quiñoá Cabana, Emilio A1 Riguera Vega, Ricardo A1 Freire Iribarne, Félix Manuel AB Polyphenylacetylenes bearing prim- and secaminegroups are barely known due to their poisoningactivity towards the polymerization catalyst. Herein weprepare 11 different amino polymers in high yields bydirect polymerization of their corresponding ammoniumsalts in water using [Rh(cod)2] +BF4- as catalyst. They arestable, water soluble, and show a helical structure thatresponds to external stimuli (polarity, pH and metalions) acting on the pendants. The location of the aminogroup in the pendant is shown to be critical for the helicalresponse to protonation PB American Chemical Society SN 0897-4756 YR 2018 FD 2018-09-12 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/18880 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/18880 LA eng NO Suárez-Picado, E., Quiñoá, E., Riguera, R., & Freire, F.
