Abstract: | We report on chemical polymerization of two aniline derivatives —
2-methylaniline and 2-methoxyaniline — in a two-phase water/pentane system.
We have found that poly(2-methylaniline) is produced in form of an amorphous
material regardless of the fact whether the monomer is initially dissolved
in aqueous or organic phase. The behavior of 2-methoxyaniline is significantly different. The oxidation of this monomer generally
results in formation of a water soluble oligomer and an insoluble polymeric product. In consequence, depending on the experimental
setup, the polymer is prepared in form of a thin film at the organic/aqueous interface or as micrometer-sized
spherical particles dispersed in the aqueous phase.
