2) in that the modes of the linkage vary from saturated spacers to unsaturated spacers with diiferent spacer lengths [66,68,168,195]. Some typical results of relevant cyclic voltammetric studies are discussed below. 

The oligophenylenevinylenes 3 fe-g as models for PPV belong to the class of redox-systems with extended rr-conjugation. Their cyclic voltammetric description reveals three most characteristic properties with increasing chain length [99, 102, 103]  

1) the absolute values of the first reduction and oxidation potentials decrease  

2) the number of reduction and oxidation states increases redox states of
