Abstract
Communication: Polyaniline (PAN)-an electrically conductive conjugated poly mer-was always of major interest due to its unique properties. However, the insolubility of PAN in common organic solvents hampered commercial exploit ation. The synthesis of new copolymers of aniline and chalcophenes is repor ted. The Figure shows a scanning electron micrograph of a poly[4-(2-furyl)b enzenamine] film cast from tetrahydrofuran.
