Notes:
The influence of different substituents (nitro and methoxy groups) on the physical properties - fusibility and solubility - and the electrical conductivity of alkoxylated poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene-1,4-phenylenevinylene)s (9, 10, 12 and 13) and of the corresponding model compounds (15, 16, 18 and 19), were studied. The conductivity at room temperature, σ298K, was found to be generally increased for polymers with nitro substituents by 2-3 orders of magnitude and for dimethoxy substituted polymers up to 4 orders of magnitude, as compared with the unsubstituted polyvinylenes. Iodine doped polyvinylenes show as an average d. c. electrical conductivities 2 orders of magnitude higher than those of the original polymers.
