Electrochemical studies of polymetallorotaxane films of a general formula poly[1,3,Mn+] where Mn+ is copper(I), cobalt(II), zinc(II), or lithium(I) are reported for both metalated and demetalated (poly[1,3,-]) forms. Cyclic voltammograms (CV) recorded for polymetallorotaxanes containing redox-active metals, with an exception of the Li one, in addition to the electroactivity of the complexing metal exhibit two redox couples associated with the consecutive oxidation/reduction of the oligothienylene units in the wiring polymer. For poly[1,3,Cu+], the CV studies are completed by ESR spectroelectrochemical investigations combined with in-situ conductivity measurements as a function of the electrode potentials. In the ESR response, two signals of different origin can be distinguished: a broad signal originating from Cu(II) paramagnetics ions (ΔHpp of ca. 265 G) and that due to unpaired spins of the polymer backbone (ΔHpp of ca. 21 G). Potential dependencies of these two signals as well as potential-induced con...
