Abstract: | The electrochemical polymerization of the amino phthalic acid series has been extended to the following derivatives: 4-(4′-aminobenzamido), 4-(2′-aminobenzoyl), and 4-(3′-aminobenzoyl)phthalic acid. Reactions were performed in both dimethylacetamide and ethanol. Both systems produced a film deposit at the anode which was identified as the amide acid of the starting material. Conversion by heat to the imide produced a brittle coating. Inherent viscosity measurements indicate that only low molecular weight material was formed. |
