  Abstract:  We report a comparative study of the optical properties of polypyrrole (PPY) synthesized by two methods: electrochemical and chemical oxidation of the monomer (pyrrole) in the presence of different doping ions (p-toluensulfonate, dodecylsulfate, dodecylbenzenesulfonate, perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate). By using FTIR and UV-Vis spectroscopy we investigated the changes of the molecular and electronic structure of polypyrrole induced by the preparation conditions. Our main goal was to find out the relevant synthesis parameters, which have a strong influence on the electron delocalization length and the molecular architecture of polypyrrole.
