We have investigated the reaction mechanism of the radical polymerization of diethyl (Z,Z)-2,4-hexadienedioate (EMU) in the crystalline state under UV irradiation to yield a polymer of ultrahigh molecular weight with a highly regulated stereochemical structure. The molecular weight of poly(EMU) was estimated to be much higher than 106 by gel permeation chromatography and viscometry, irrespective of the polymerization temperature, in contrast to the polymerization rate, which significantly depended on the temperature. The crystal structural change monitored by X-ray diffraction during the polymerization has evidenced the crystal-to-crystal reaction process yielding the poly(EMU) crystals. The results of X-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopy confirmed that the propagation proceeded under a crystal-lattice control, leading to the meso-diisotactic-trans-2,5-polymer as a completely regulated structure. The ESR measurement has revealed the radical chain mechanism and the formation of a long-lived propagating r...
