Abstract
We calculate the leading 1/Nf perturbative contributions to the polarized nonsinglet structure functions g3 and g5 to all orders in $\alpha_s$. The contributions from the first renormalon pole are determined. It is a measure for the ambiguity of the perturbative calculation and is hypothetically assumed to dominate the power corrections. The corrections $\Delta g_3$ and $\Delta g_5$ are given as functions of the Bjorken variable x and turn out to be negligible. The anomalous dimensions of the leading twist operators are obtained in the next-to-leading order.
