- Abstract:
- In the present contribution,we synthesized linear
coordination polymers based on oligo(ethylene glycol)s as
well as poly(ethylene glycol)s and terpyridine ruthenium(II)
complexes. The reaction conditions, e.g., solvent, concentration,
werevaried to obtainwell-soluble, highmolecularweight
polymers. The resulting compounds were characterized by
UV-vis and NMR spectroscopy. The viscosity of the materials
was also investigated with and without salt addition. Finally,
the polymers were characterized with DSC and AFM. AFM
revealed a lamellar morphology.
