New Insigths into the structure and properties of electroactive polymer filmes derived from Ni(salen)polymer. Inorganic Chemistry. ISSN 0020-1669. 36:22, p. 4919-49290020-1669http://hdl.handle.net/10198/5892Oxidative electrochemical polymerization of (N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneaminato)) nickel(II), [Ni(salen)], in acetonitrile/TEAP was reinvestigated. The polymers were characterized by in situ FTIR and UV-visible spectroscopies in order to explore film structure and to clarify the electronic states as a function of the electrochemically controlled applied redox potential; oxidized species involved in polymerization and oxidative switching of the polymer were also assessed by ex situ EPR experiments.engjournal article10.1021/ic970467j
