Abstract: | 1 Results In this contribution we present the synthesis and characterization of novel copolymers based on fluorene and thiophene (see Scheme 1).They were synthesized by the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction of 9,9-dihexylfluorene-2,7-diboronic acid bis(1,3-propanediol) ester and 3-substituted (R=3-methylbutyl,hexyl,2-(pyren-1-yl)vinyl) 2,5-dibromothiophenes and characterized by GPC,IR and NMR techniques.UV-vis absorption,photoluminescence (PL) and electrochemical behavior of these polymers were also... |
