Abstract | An efficient synthetic route to $\beta$-linked dipyrrole monomers has been developed. Electrochem. polymn. of these monomers leads to the incorporation of polycyclic arom. residues into a polymer backbone. The resulting conjugated polymer films are electroactive, robust electrochromic materials that are highly delocalized in their oxidized forms. [on SciFinder(R)] |
