Summary: pXPAs were stereospecifically polymerized using [Rh(nbd)Cl] 2 as catalyst in the presence of a mixed solvent, i.e., ethanol and triethylamine, at 20 °C. The resulting PpXPAs were characterized in detail in order to predict geometrical structures concerning cis and trans configurations in the main‐chain CC bonds using 1 H NMR, laser Raman, XRD, and ESR methods. The data showed that the PpXPAs have an extremely high content of the cis‐transoid form. Immobile unpaired electrons, ca. 1.2–3.1 × 10 17 spins · g −1 , called the cis radicals, were found to be stabilized even in the pristine cis PpXPAs. The observed g values of the pristine PpXPAs could be correlated with the spin‐orbit coupling constant ζ of the halogen atom at the para position of the phenyl.Second derivative ESR spectra of PpIPA observed (a) before and (b) after compression, and the suggested respective structures.
