Aromatic polyamidines are prepared via the polycondensation of dicarboxamides and diamines in Eaton's reagent. The polymers are investigated by elemental analysis and IR and NMR spectroscopy. Polya midines are well soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated formic acid and in polar organic sol vents, and temperatures corresponding to their 10% weight losses are in the range 245-280°C.
