“…Wochnowski and Metev [386] carried out polymeriza tion of 2iodothiophene and 2,5diodothiophene mono mers, mixed with aqueous hydriodic acid under UVlaser irradiation. During the irradiation of the former monomer, a silvercolored thin film was observed on the surface of the liquid phase.…”

A unique feature of molecular iodine by far, is its ability to bind to polymeric materials. A plethora of natural and synthetic polymers develop complexes when treated with molecular iodine, or with a mixture of mole cular iodine and potassium iodide. Many unexpected findings have been encountered upon complexation of iodine and the polymer skeleton, including the color formation, the polymer morphology changes, the compl exation sites or regions, the biological activity, and the electrical conductivity enhancement of the complexes, with poly iodides (I n¯) , mainly I 3¯ and I 5¯, as the actual binding species. Natural polymers that afford such complexes with iodine species are starch (amylose and amylopectin), chitosan, glycogen, silk, wool, albumin, cellulose, xylan, and natural rubber; iodinestarch being the oldest iodinenatural polymer complex. By contrast, numerous synthetic polymers are prone to make com plexes, including poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), nylons, poly(Schiff base)s, poly aniline, unsaturated polyhydrocarbons (carbon nano tubes, fullerenes C 60 /C 70 , polyacetylene; iodinePVA being the oldest iodinesynthetic polymer complex.

“…Iodine, as a dopant plays vital role in the field of insulating [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] as well as conducting polymers [10][11][12][13][14]. Iodine is highly electronegative and therefore when doped in polymers, it acts like an acceptor kind of impurity.…”

“…Because of a p-conjugated carbon backbone, polythiophene and its derivatives exhibits a number of interesting electrochemical, electrochromic, luminescent, and shielding properties, which provides a basis for various new technologies [18][19][20]. Thiophene derivatives can be oxidized chemically [19,21,22] photochemically [20,[23][24][25] or electrochemically [18] and can also be polymerized to corresponding polythiophenes.…”
