Abstract

Poly (pyridinediylbutadiynylene) s, a conjugated polymer alternatively consisted of the pyridine and butadiyne units, were synthesized by oxidative polycondensation of diethynylpyridine with the Hay catalyst. They converted to microporous carbons in high yields with a high efficiency of fixation of nitrogen by heating up from room temperature to 900° C under flowing of argon.
