A number of novel nonlinear optically (NLO) active polymethacrylates were prepared from the NLO active methacrylates 2a-d with azobenzene side groups and the bulky comonomer 1-adamantyl methacrylate. The polymers exhibit unusually high glass transition temperatures between 160 "C and 190°C. The copo

Abstract
The copolymerization of propene and norbornene with the isospecific metallocene catalyst dimethylsilylenebis(η^5^‐inden‐1‐yl)zirconium dichloride/methylaluminoxane ((CH~3~)~2~Si[Ind]~2~ZrCl~2~/MAO) was investigated. Because of the surprisingly high reactivity of the cyclic olefin copolymers with a norbornene content of 11 mol‐% up to 98 mol‐% were synthesized. The resulting copolymers are amorphous. The glass transition temperatures studied by differential scanning calorimetry measurements increase with rising norbornene content in the copolymer. High glass transition temperatures of T~g~ > 240°C were found for the copolymers with the highest content of norbornene.
