Abstract
Several polymers with viologen structure were prepared by polymer analogous reaction with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and ethylcellulose (EC). The polymers were used as electronβtransfer catalysts (ETC) for the reduction of azobenzene, either in a ZnβPV^2+^ system (reductant: Zn, in CH~3~CN/H~2~O) or a Na~2~S~2~O~4~βPV^2+^ system (reductant: Na~2~S~2~O~4~, in CH~2~Cl~2~/H~2~O). It was found that all the polymers used in our work had the ability to mediate the reduction of azobenzene. Two factors (polymeric carrier and viologen group) are believed to affect the reduction.
