Dy. Kim et al., SYNTHESIS OF ELECTRIC CONDUCTIVE POLY(ARYLENE VINYLENE) CONTAINING VINYL PYRROLE (PVP), Molecular crystals and liquid crystals science and technology. Section A, Molecular crystals and liquid crystals, 247, 1994, pp. 1-10
A new polyarylenevinylene containing vinyl pyrrole (PVP) was obtained
from the monomer, 2,5-bis (methylenedimethylsulfonium) chloride pyrrol
e, which was prepared from 2,5-dimethylpyrrole by the modified sulfoni
um polyelectrolyte precursor route. The polymerization conditions for
the preparation of precursor polymers are described. The highest yield
was obtained when the PVP was synthesized at -40 degrees C with the m
onomer/base concentration ratios of 0.5/0.2 and thermally eliminated a
t 220 degrees C. The electrical conductivity of the PVP synthesized wi
th aforementioned conditions was given as 6.8 x 10(-7) Scm(-1).
