Conformational, Optical and Electrochemical Properties of Quinone Bis(ethynylphenyl)diimine Linkers.

摘要

Polyaniline in its protonated emaraldine form, is a well-known conducting polymer (“synthetic metal”) that finds applications in many microelectronics and sensor devices, just to state these two (Chart 1). Quinone diimines in their protonated and reduced (para-di(phenyl-amino)benzene) forms were often used as model compounds in order to extract information on the possible structures of polyaniline, and on the structure-property relationship of this conducting polymer (Chart 2).
