Abstract	Several polysilanes with sterically bulky substituents such as poly(2-phenylpropyl)(n-hexyl)silane were prepared by Wurtz-type coupling. The polysilane products were mixtures of low-molecular-weight polymers (&bar{M};w~103) as major and high-molecular-weight polymers (&bar{M};w~106) as minor. Overall yields for polysilanes were in the range of 81-99%. λmax of liquid low MW polymers appeared at around 280 nm. Formations of solid high MW polymers were decreased by a longer reaction time and increased steric bulkiness of substituents. High MW polymers with λmax at 327 nm except crosslinked polymers were soluble in common organic solvents and found to be light sensitive. Crosslinked high MW polymer gave 21% TGA ceramic yield, compared with linear high polymer giving zero ceramic yield.
