Novel polyaniline derivatives soluble in general organic solvents are provided without impairment of the inherent good properties of the corresponding polyanilines. The novel polyaniline derivatives are polymers represented by the following formula (I): <IMAGE> (I) wherein Y means a group represented by the following formula: R1CO-, R2S-, R2SO-, R2SO2- or R5+545 O-R4+546 k-OR3-, R1 through R5 being particular substituent groups, k is an integer of 0-5, and n and m independently represent polymerization degree and are integers satisfying the following equations: m/(n+m)=0.01-1 and n+m=20-1000. They can each be produced by reacting a halide, which is represented by the following formula: Y-X wherein Y has the same meaning as described above and X means a chlorine or bromine atom, to a reduced polyaniline.
