A new class of organometallic polymer having a backbone of conjugated Poly-yne and Zr-metal atoms has been prepared. Trichloroethylene (TCE) and Hexachlorobutadiene (HCB) are quantitatively converted by n-butyllithium to dilithioacetylene (LiC=CLi) and dilithiodiacetylene (Li-C=C-C=C-Li) respectively. Quenching with Cp-2*ZrCl2 affords high yields of the polymers [Zr(Cp-2*)C=C](n) and [Zr(Cp-2*)C=C-C=C](n) where Cp* = C-5(CH3)(5) = pentamethyl cyclopentadienyl. The Cp-2*ZrCl2 and the polymers were characterized by viscosity, molecular weight, elemental analysis, FTIR, NMR spectra, and TGA.
