Anodic oxidation of 2(9H-fluoren-9-ylidene)malononitrile and 2(9H-fluoren-9-ylidene)-2-phenylacetonitrile. Electrochemical behavior and physicochemical properties of the derived polymers
The anodic oxidation of the title fluorenylidenes in CH2Cl2 + 0.2 M Bu4NBF4 is described. The electrochemical behaviour and the physicochemical properties of the derived polymers are discussed and compared with those of other polymethylenefluorenes.
