Poly(2,3‐dimethylaniline) (P(2,3‐DMA)) was synthesized chemically by using phosphoric acid (H 3 PO 4 ) as protonic acid. The optimum ratio for n (H 3 PO 4 )/ n (2,3‐DMA)/ n (APS) was 2.5/1/2, and the optimum temperature was 30°C. The spectra of ultraviolet‐visible and infrared demonstrate that the structure of P(2,3‐DMA) was similar with polyaniline (PANI) except for the 2,3‐ortho‐substitute methyl. The result of X‐ray diffraction and solubility analysis indicate that owing to the 2,3‐ortho‐substitute benzene ring, the P(2,3‐DMA) has poorly partial crystallinity and better solubility. In addition, the anticorrosion property of P(2,3‐DMA) was better than PANI. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013
