Abstract
Quaternization of trans-dipyridylporphyrin with 1,4-butaneditrifluorom ethane-sulfonate affords new polyionenes containing porphyrin units in the main chain. The polymers exhibit chemical and electrochemical rev ersible redox activities. Weitz-type two-step redox processes similar to those of viologens account for the redox properties of the polymers .
