Abstract
Electropolymerization of a new thiophene derivative 3,4-methylenedioxy thiophene was studied on indium tin oxide electrodes and platinum in d ifferent organic solvents (acetonitrile, propylene carbonate, and nitr obenzene). Electropolymerization potentiodynamically in anhydrous nitr obenzene resulted in best polymeric films, which were compact and tigh tly adhered to the substrate surface. The properties of these films we re compared to those previously published for poly(3,4-ethylenedioxyth iophene).
