Abstract
N-Oxides of nitrogenous heterocycle or nitrogenous fused heterocycle polymers of general formula (1) or (7) (wherein any two of a, b, c, d, e, f, g and h are carbon atoms participating in the bonding between repeating units; at least one of them is N→O; the rest are each CH, N or N→O; and the degree of polymerization “n” is at least 5). These polymers have excellent heat resistance, are soluble in aqueous or organic solvents and controllable in the degree of depolarization and electrochemical redox potential, exhibit clear color changes by chemical or electrochemical oxidation or reduction, and are conductive per se . They can be used as moldings such as fibers and films; electrochromic elements; active materials and electrodes of cells; semiconductors including n-type semiconductors; and so on.
