Summary Cyclopropyldiphenylmethyl and cyclohexyldiphenylmethyl methacrylates were polymerized with chiral anionic initiators in toluene at low temperature. The former monomer gave an atactic polymer and the latter monomer a highly isotactic, optically active polymer of one-handed helical conformation. The optically active polymer underwent a helix-helix transition in chloroform at 60°C.
