Abstract
The anionic bulk polymerization of optically active (2__R__, 3__S__)‐3,4‐epoxy‐1,2‐O‐isopropylidenebutane‐1,2‐diol (1) and its (2 S, 3 S) diastereomer 2 was studied. Molecular weights and optical activity measurements as well as carbon and proton NMR spectra are reported. The polymers show solvent dependent inversion of the sign of optical rotation. The NMR spectra are consistent with isotactic polymer chains.

## Abstract Potassium hydride with 1,4,7,10,13,16‐hexaoxacyclooctadecane (18‐crown‐6) was used in the anionic polymerization of (butoxymethyl)oxirane. Polymers with low ratio of mass‐ to number‐average molar masses (M̄~w~/M̄~n~ < 1.1) were obtained, each macromolecule being terminated (after hydrol
Boron azaenolates 2 and 8 from the optically active chloromethyloxazolines 1 and 7 have been found to couple with ketones in a highly diastereoselective fashion, which depends markedly upon the geometry (Z) of the azaenolates and the nature of the ligands which are present on the boron atom, in good
