## Abstract **Summary:** Homopolymerization of 4‐methyl‐1,3‐pentadiene (MP) and copolymerization of 4‐methyl‐1,3‐pentadiene with alkenes (ethylene, 1‐pentene, 4‐methyl‐1‐pentene) were performed to investigate the effect of the so‐called backbiting coordination on the chemoselectivity of 1,3‐diene p
