Abstract
Metathesis polymers of norbornene and 1‐methylnorbornene were prepared using a well‐defined aryloxy(chloro)neopentylidene tungsten initiator which behaves in a stereo and regioselective manner giving predominantly cis polymers and a strong head‐to‐tail bias in the case of 1‐methylnorbornene. This is in accord with the observation that this initiator is also very stereoselective in acyclic metathesis.
