G. %J Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society %D 2001 %I Sociedade Brasileira de Qu¨ªmica, SBQ %X In this paper we report the synthesis and characterization of novel organic-inorganic hybrid materials between the crystalline antimonic acid (CAA) and two conductive polymers: polypyrrole and polyaniline. The hybrids were obtained by in situ oxidative polymerization of monomers by the Sb(V) present in the pyrochlore-like CAA structure. The materials were characterized by infrared and Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, cyclic voltammetry, CHN elemental analysis and electronic paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The results showed that both polymers were formed in their oxidized form, with the CAA structure acting as a counter anion. %K organic-inorganic hybrid materials %K conducting polymers %K crystalline antimonic acid %U http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0103-50532001000400017
