Electrochemical Analysis and Applications

Abstract The polymerization of indene by constant potential electrolysis in dichloromethane was achieved at low temperatures. Molecular weights were found to be inversely proportional to polymerization temperature. The oxidation peak potential of indene in the (C4H9)4-NBF4-CH3CN electrolyte-solvent system was measured by cyclic voltammetry. Polymers which were produced electrochemically by constant potential electrolysis have the same spectral properties with those obtained by chemical methods.
