Two types of linear oligomers, namely Ph/NH2and NH2/NH2end-capped oligoanilines have been synthesized by SNAr coupling/reduction sequence. The1H NMR spectra of obtained compounds are strongly influenced by electron withdrawing or electron donating effects of the terminal groups (NO2or NH2, respectively). The UV-Vis spectra of nitroamines exhibit two peaks characteristic for two types of the phenylene substituents (-NH-or NO2), ...
