Electroinitiated polymerization of bis(4-bromo-2,6-dichlorophenoxo)N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine copper(II) complex was achieved upon oxidation. Prior to polymerization a cyclic voltammogram (CV) of the complex was obtained. Polymerization potentials were selected as the oxidation and reduction peak potentials of the complex, obtained by CV. Polymers in the form of poly(dihalophenylene oxide), were obtained by constant potential electrolyses carried out at redox peak potentials of the complex. No ligand or copper was found to incorporate into the final polymer product. The mechanism of polymerization was found to be free radicalic. It was also found that post-polymerization proceeds in the absence of current, when current is ceased after approximately 10 minutes of electrolysis. Percent conversions of polymerization had been measured by an electrochemical technique via simultaneous measurement of reacted monomer concentration. In order to follow the reacted monomer concentration by simultaneous CV measurement, a special H-type electrolysis cell with six electrodes was constructed. Polymers were characterized by 1H-n.m.r., 13C-n.m.r. and FTi.r. spectroscopy along with molecular weight measurements by the isopiestic method.

ELECTROINITIATED POLYMERIZATION OF ACRYLAMIDE BY DIRECT ELECTRON-TRANSFER HACIOGLU, B; Akbulut, Ural; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Wiley, 1989-10-01) Electroinitiated polymerization of acrylamide was carried out in acetonitrile–tetrabutylammonium fluoroborate by electrolytic reduction of monomer. It was shown by cyclic voltammetry that direct electron transfer from the cathode to the monomer can be achieved in this solvent–electrolyte system. Reduction peak potentials measured by cyclic voltammetry indicated that sodium salts will interfere with such a mechanism. Since the reduction peak potential of sodium salt and dimethylformamide are found to be lowe...
Electrochemical Synthesis of a Water-Soluble and Self-Doped Polythiophene Derivative Turac, Ersen; Varol, Ramazan; Ak, Metin; Sahmetlioglu, Ertugrul; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2008-01-01) A new monomer, 4-(thiophen-3-yl methyleneamino)benzene sulfonate) (ThSA), was synthesized and characterized. Electrochemical polymerization of ThSA yields a water-soluble and self-doped polymer (PThSA). This polymer was characterized by FT-IR, NMR, DSC, XRD and conductivity measurements.

Electrochemical polymerisation of 2-aminofluorene in ethylalcohol/water medium Imamoglu, T; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (Elsevier BV, 2004-08-01) Electrochemical polymerisation of 2-aminofluorene, 2AF, was investigated in ethylalcohol/water mixture (3:2, v:v) in the presence of HClO4 as the supporting electrolyte via constant potential electrolysis, CPE. Prior to CPE, electrochemical behaviour of the monomer was investigated in the same solvent electrolyte couple utilising cyclic voltammetry, CV. Electrochemical polymerisation of the monomer yielded insoluble, dark bluish-green, conducting polymer deposit on the electrode surface. Characterisation of...
Electrochemistry of nickel(II) complexes with N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)polymethylenediamines Ozalp-Yaman, S; Kasumov, VT; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (Elsevier BV, 2005-10-03) The electrochemical oxidation of several N,N'-polymethylenebis(3,5-di-tert- butylsalicylaldiminato)nickel(II) complexes, Ni(L-x), has been studied by cyclic voltammetry and in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy in DMF Cyclic voltammograms of Ni(L-x) (x = 1-4) complexes displayed two-step oxidation processes under nitrogen gas atmosphere. The first oxidation peak potentials of all the Ni(II) complexes corresponds to the reversible one-electron oxidation process of the metal center, yielding Ni(III) species. EPR spectr...
Electrochemical synthesis of poly(3-bromo-4-methoxythiophene) and its device application CIHANER, Atilla; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar (2007-03-15) A functionalized thiophene containing both an electron withdrawing and an electron donating group, 3-bromo-4-methoxythiophene (BrMeOTh) was succesfully polymerized in acetonitrile containing 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBABF4) electrolyte via electrochemical oxidation of the corresponding monomer. BrMeOTh exhibits a lower oxidation potential (1.68 V vs Ag/AgCl) than thiophene (2.05 V vs Ag/AgCl). Spectroelectrochemical properties of poly(3-bromo-4-methoxythiophene) (PBrMeOTh) was investigate...
