    Electrochemical Polymerization of Para-Substituted Haloanilines
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2006) Cihaner, A; Önal, AM
    Polyhaloanilines: poly(4-fluoroaniline) (P4FAN), poly(4-chloroaniline) (P4CAN), and poly(4-bromoaniline) (P4BAN), are synthesized from para-substituted haloaniline monomers; 4-fluoroaniline (4FAN), 4-chloroaniline (4CAN), and 4-bromoaniline (4BAN), respectively, via constant potential electrolysis (CPE) in acetonitrile-water mixture (1:1 v/v) with NaClO4 as supporting electrolyte. Prior to CPE, electrochemical behavior of the monomers were investigated in organic medium utilizing cyclic voltammetry (CV). The course of CPE was monitored using in-situ UV-VIS spectroscopic technique. Characterization of polymer products have been carried out using FT-IR and NMR spectroscopic techniques and thermal behaviors were studied using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Polyhaloanilines synthesized by electrochemical oxidation were doped using iodine and the change in the paramagnetic behavior was monitored by ESR, UV-VIS, and FT-IR.

    Anodic Oxidation of N-Substituted Dipyrrolyl Linked by Polyether Bridge
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2006) Cihaner, Atilla
    Electroactive polymer containing polyether pseudo-cages has been synthesized by anodic oxidation of 1,11-bis(1,1-pyrrole)-3,6,9-trioxaundecane (I) using acetonitrile (ACN) as solvent and tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAClO 4 ) as supporting electrolyte. Electrochemical behavior of monomer I and its polymer, poly-I , were studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and UV-VIS spectroscopic techniques. Also, a doping/dedoping study was carried out using electron spin resonance (ESR) and UV-VIS spectroscopic techniques. Thermal behavior of the product was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).
