Reaction of 2,3-hexanedione with 2,3-hexanedione dihydrazone leads to a polazine that is soluble in organic solvents. This synthetic method gives a polymer with statistically alternating methyl and propyl substituents on the carbon atoms along the chain. Like the previously reported permethyl polyazine, IR spectra suggest that the propyl methyl polymer is a linear chain with double bonds in the E conformation and single bonds in the anti (or s-trans) conformation. IR, UV-vis, and NMR spectra all imply that extensive conjugation exists along the polymer backbone.
