We report the synthesis of ionic telechelic low-molecular-weight polyethylenes (PEs) with precise chain lengths that are derived from plant oils along with their morphologies and temperature-dependent ionic conductivities. Starting from the C48 telechelic dimethyl ester, or the C23 analogue for comparison, different ionic carboxylate end groups (H+, Na+, Cs+, Zn2+) were introduced by microwave-assisted saponification chemistry. Because of the precise length of the polymethylene sequence, these difunctional telechelic PEs crystallize into exceptionally well-ordered nanoscale-layered structures at room temperature. As a consequence of their extended chain crystal nature, the layer thickness is directly encoded by the telechelic molecules methylene chain length. Notably, C21(COONa)2, C46(COONa)2, and C46(COOCs)2 exhibit transitions in the crystalline structure prior to the fully disordered melt state, as evidenced by differential scanning calorimetry and in situ X-ray scattering. The melting transition is ty...
