Soluble conducting poly(acetylene)–poly(isoprene) block copolymers have been synthesized by using the polymeric catalyst formed by the reaction of poly(isoprenyl-lithium) with tetrabutoxytitanium in toluene at room temperature; an instantaneous polymerization of acetylene is observed leading to the formation of a block copolymer in which the poly(isoprene) chain length is the determining factors of the materials electrical behaviour.
