The polyacetylene derivative showed a lyotropic liquid crystal in d-limonene. The cis configuration of the main chain was confirmed via 1H NMR. Heat treatment induced cis–trans isomerization of the as-prepared polymer. Gas-phase iodine doping of the polymer initiated a chemical interaction between the polyene and iodine, acting as an electron acceptor, generating charge carriers (radical cations, solitons) detected with the electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Moreover, gas phase doping of the polymer induced cis–trans isomerization.Keywords: Amphotropic liquid crystald-limoneneelectrodopantelectron spin resonancemono-substituted polyacetylene AcknowledgmentsWe would like to thank the Open Facility, Research Facility Center for Science and Technology, University of Tsukuba for NMR and DSC measurements, as well as the Glass Workshop of the University of Tsukuba.
