Synthesis of N-derivatised pyrroles: precursors to highly functionalised electropolymers

Abstract

We describe the synthesis and characterisation of 13 new pyrrole derivatives which provide routes to amino acid, di- and tri-peptide functionalised electropolymers directly or via post-polymerisational chemistry.
