N-3-Yne-butenylcarbazole has been synthesized by stirring a mixture of carbazole, 1,4-dichloro-2-butyne, benzene, 50% NaOH and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide in water. The compound was polymerized by heating. The polymerization activated energy was 118 kj/mol. Molecular weight of the polymer polymerized at 120 t! was 1.9 x l(r (n ?a9). The conductance ratio of the polymer was less than 10 ~12 S? cm~' and that of the charge transfer compound of the polymer with FeCl3 was 8 x 10 ~4 S ? cm"1.
