Polypyrrole films are currently being explored in applications such as biosensors, addressable gene-chips, and interactive conduits for neuronal tissue engineering. 1 3- Substituted alkylpyrroles have utility as functionalizable monomers for derivatization and modification of polypyrrole surfaces. 3-Alkyl pyrroles bearing reactive end groups on the alkyl moiety can be utilized to impart certain biospecificity, for example, by attachment of ...
