A range of silanylene‐spaced divinylbenzene copolymers ( 1 ) and the corresponding monomers ( 2 ) have been synthesized by the rhodium‐catalyzed hydrosilylation of the corresponding bisalkynes with bissilyl hydrides, and the photophysical properties of 1 and 2 have been investigated. The silicon moiety in 1 serves as an insulating tetrahedral spacer that makes 1 highly folded. The two chromophores may be in close proximity such that a ground‐state intrachain interaction between two conjugated moieties through space might occur. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
