✦ Synopsis
The synthesis of the model compounds 2-(4-methoxyphenylazo)anthraquinone (1) and 2-[4-(6-acetoxyhexyloxy)phenylazo]anthraquinone (2), the monomer 2-[4-(6-methacryloyloxyhexyloxy)phenylazo]anthraquinone (3) and the polymethacrylate poly-3 via radical polymerization of 3 is described. The electrochemical behaviour of poly-3 is studied by cyclic voltammetry in comparison with 1 and 2. Poly-3 can be reduced and oxidized reversibly in solution and in thin films in a two-step redox process. Therefore, poly-3 is a potential material for a molecular device system using the electrochemical properties.
