Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Impedance Spectroscopy of N-Substituted Oligo-Oxyethylene Polypyrrole Films(John Wiley & Sons inc, 2008) Cihaner, Atilla; Onal, Ahmet M.The electrochemical properties of neutral (dedoped) and oxidized (doped) poly(1,11-bis(1,1-pyrrole)-3,6,9-trioxaundecane) (poly-I) film electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Poly-I was deposited on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) from acetonitrile solution containing 5.0 x 10(-3) M 1,11-bis(1,1-pyrrole)-3,6,9-trioxaundecane (I) and 0.1 M LiClO4 supporting electrolyte. Doped poly-I exhibits a single semicircle in its complex-capacitance plots, indicating a single dominant ion transport process, together with high capacitance values. These features make this polymer film a candidate for an energy storage material. Also, poly-I can be a candidate as a sensory material for the detection of Ag+ based on impedance parameters.

The corresponding polymer called PProDOT-CycHex(2) has a reduced band gap of 1.85 eV and an electrochromic property: blue/violet when neutralized and highly transparent when oxidized. Also, PProDOT-CycHex(2) film exhibited faster response time (0.7 s) and higher coloration efficiency (769 cm(2)/C) during oxidation when compared to its benzyl substituted analogue.

Electrochemical behavior of furan was investigated in the same solvent mixture of varying ratios, utilizing cyclic voltammetry. Free-standing polyfuran (PFu) films were obtained in CH3CN/BF3/EE mixture (2/4/4; v/v/v) and characterized using FTIR spectroscopic technique. Spectroelectrochemical behavior of the PFu film was investigated by recording the electronic absorption spectra, in sitn, in monomer-free solution. It is observed that PFu film can be reversibly cycled between -0.1 V (gray) and + 0.6 V versus Ag-wire (gray color); however, this behavior diminishes in the presence of water. Electrochromic device application of PFu film with poly(ethylene dioxythiophene) was also studied.

It is noteworthy that 1,2-bis (5-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxepin-6-yl)-2-methylthiophen-3-yl)cyclopent-1-ene can be efficiently switched between open and closed states by light in both solution and in the solid poly(methyl metacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. It is also found that the emission of this novel compound can be switched on and off upon irradiation.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Synthesis of Polyacrylamide-Based Redox Active Cryogel Using Click Chemistry and Investigation of Its Electrochemical Properties(Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2021) Tonta, Magdalena M.; Sahin, Zeynep M.; Cihaner, Atilla; Yilmaz, Faruk; Gurek, AysegulFerrocene (Fc) functionalization of macroporous polyacrylamide-based cryogel (PAAm-Epx) is achieved by click chemistry. For this purpose, firstly, PAAm-Epx cryogel with azide functionality (PAAm-N-3) is prepared by using acryalmide (AAm) as the monomer and allyl glycidyl ether (AGE) as the co-monomer followed by subsequent ring opening reaction of epoxide ring of AGE in acidic medium. Azide groups of PAAm-N-3 is then modified with ethynyl ferrocene, leading to the redox active cryogel (PAAm-Fc) together with preserving the unique characteristic properties of the virgin PAAm-Epx cryogel. Swelling, mechanical and morphological behaviours of PAAm-Epx, PAAm-N-3 and PAAm-Fc are investigated. Detailed characterization of the PAAm-Fc is carried out by several techniques such as FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emmision Spectrometry (ICP-OES, Cyclic (CV), and Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV). Electrochemical analysis confirms the electroactivity and the presence of chemically linked ferrocene unit to the cryogel.
