Abstract Four kinds of stereoregular poly (muconic acid) s, which are synthesized by topochemical polymerization and subsequent solid-state hydrolysis, are used as the organic host materials for intercalation. We describe the reaction behavior and layered structure of intercalation compounds using stereoregular poly (muconic acid) s and n-alkylamines as host and guest, respectively. The packing structure of the guest alkylamines was ...
