In this study, the novel thermally stable metal-coordinated-poly(azomethine-urethane)s (PAMU-M)s were synthesized to investigate some physical properties such as thermal stability, optical and electrochemical properties. For this reason, we firstly synthesized the Schiff base via condensation reaction of p-phenylenediamine with 2,4-dihydroxy benzaldehyde. Secondly, metal-coordinated Schiff bases were synthesized by coordination reaction of the obtained Schiff base and different metal ions such as Cu(II), Ni(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II). Then, these metal-coordinated Schiff bases were converted to their PAMU derivatives by the step-polymerization reaction using 2,4-toluenediisocyanate. Also, thermal stability, electrochemical and optic properties of the obtained materials were investigated.
