Notes:
1H-NMR spectra of polyisoprene were assigned using polymers of isoprene-1,1,4,4-d4, isoprene-1,1,5,5,5-d5, and isoprene-4,4-d2 polymerized with various catalysts. The methylene-proton signal at 2.1 ppm in cis-1,4 - and trans-1,4-polyisoprenes was divided into H4- and H1-proton signals; H4 resonated at 2.21 ppm in both cis-1,4 and trans-1,4 units whereas H1 resonated at 2.05, 2.21, and 2.15 ppm. Splitting due to the dyad sequences of 1,4 and 3,4 units was apparent. The methine-proton (H3) in a 3,4 unit showed a broad peak centered around 1.5 ppm in C6D6. The overlapping of this signal with the methyl-proton signals at 1.73 and 1.63 ppm resulted in some uncertainty in the determination of the microstructure of polyisoprene which contained a considerable amount of 3,4 unit.
