Synthesis and Characterization of Polymers with Oligoaniline Side Chains

摘要

Polymers containing oligomeric aniline side chains were synthesized via free radical polymerization. All monomers with dimer aniline units and acrylates with trimer aniline unit were polymerized under standard conditions with AIBN as initiator. For acrylamides with trimer aniline unit, blocking of the diphenyl amine group was necessary for the successful polymerization. The UV-vis spectroscopy of the polymer with a trimer side chain was similar to that of polyaniline. Low electrical conductivity was observed for some of the polymers when doped with iodine.
