Synthesis and properties of fluorene‐based fluorinated polymers

Fluorene‐based polymers containing various fluorinated benzene (fluorobenzene, p‐difluorobenzene, and tetrafluorobenzene) moieties were synthesized. In addition, perfluorooctylation of poly‐[(9,9‐dioctylfluorene‐2,7‐diyl)‐co‐(fluorene‐2,7‐diyl)] was carried out to afford fluorene‐based polymers with perfluorooctyl moiety at the 9‐position on the fluorene ring. To evaluate the effect of fluorine moiety, polymers containing nonfluorinated benzene moieties and nonfluorinated octyl groups were synthesized. The photoluminescence measurements indicated that all these polymers exhibited blue emission in solution, but a polymer containing a perfluorooctyl group did not emit in the film state. Polymers containing various fluorinated benzene moieties showed higher fluorescence quantum yields and thermal stability than those containing nonfluorinated benzene. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Incorporation of a conjugated side‐chain in regioregular polythiophenes: Chiroptical properties and selective oxidation

The synthesis, aggregation, and optical properties of a chiral, regioregular polythiophene, substituted with a conjugated substituent, are described. The polymer was prepared using a Stille coupling reaction. The fact that the side‐chain contributes to the absorption (UV‐vis), emission (fluorescence), and redox behavior (cyclic voltammetry) of the material demonstrates that the substituent contributes to the electronic properties. It was shown that the conjugated side‐chain chirally stacks in conditions in which the polymer backbone aggregates, which demonstrates the ability of conjugated polymers to induce a (chiral) lamellar organization of conjugated moieties, present in their side‐chain. The aggregation of both the side‐chain and the backbone was monitored using UV‐vis and CD spectroscopy. Finally, it is shown that the conjugated side‐chain can selectively be oxidized, without oxidizing the polythiophene backbone. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of blue‐light emissive carbazole containing perfluorocyclobutyl arylene ether polymers

A series of N‐alkyl/aryl carbazole 3,6‐substituted arylene trifluorovinyl ether (TFVE) monomers were synthesized in high purity and yield from a concise four‐step synthesis using carbazole as a starting material. Condensate‐free, step‐growth chain extension of the monomers afforded perfluorocyclobutyl (PFCB) arylene ether homo‐ and copolymers as solution processable, optically transparent blue‐light emissive materials. Arylene TFVE monomers and conversion to PFCB arylene ether polymers were structurally elucidated and purity confirmed by high resolution mass spectroscopy, NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁹F) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared analysis. Thermal analysis by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis revealed glass transition temperatures >150 °C and onset of decomposition in nitrogen >410 °C with 40 wt % char yield up to 900 °C. Optical and electrochemical studies included solution (tetrahydrofuran) and solid state (spin cast thin film) UV–vis/fluorescence spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry which showed structure dependence of these blue emissive systems on the nature of the N‐alkyl/aryl carbazole substitution in either homo‐ or copolymer configurations. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reactive polythiophenes with zincke salt structure: Synthesis,polymer reactions,and chemical properties

Polythiophenes with reactive Zincke salt structure, such as PThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th , were synthesized by the oxidation polymerization of 3′‐(4‐N‐(2,4‐dinitrophenyl)pyridinium chloride)‐2,2′:5′,2″‐terthiophene ( ThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th ) with iron(III) chloride or copper(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate. The reaction of PThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th with R‐NH₂ (R = n‐hexyl (Hex) and phenyl (Ph)) substituted the 2,4‐dinitrophenyl group into the R group with the elimination of 2,4‐dinitroaniline to yield PThThPy⁺R(Cl^?)Th . Similarly, model compounds, ThThPy⁺R(Cl^?)Th (R = Hex and Ph), were also synthesized. In contrast to the photoluminescent ThThPyTh and PThThPyTh , the compounds PThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th , PThThPy⁺R(Cl^?)Th , and ThThPy⁺R(Cl^?)Th showed no photoluminescence because their internal pyridinium rings acted as quenchers. Cyclic voltammetry measurements suggested that PThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th received an electrochemical reduction of the pyridinium and 2,4‐dinitrophenyl groups and oxidation of the polymer backbone. PThThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)Th was electrically conductive (ρ = 2.0 × 10^?6 S cm^?1) in the non‐doped state. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012     

Synthesis and characterization of a new acceptor (n‐type) fluorinated and terminal‐functionalized polythiophene

Donor‐ or acceptor‐substituted polythiophenes have many potential applications in optoelectronics. Fluorinated polythiophenes are particularly attractive because of the presence of fluorine, which can withdraw electrons and also improve polymer chemical stability. Because of the promising future of these polymers, there has been much interest in identifying favorable synthetic routes to new fluorinated monomers and polymers. In this study, the monomer had an electron‐withdrawing fluorinated ester and was derived from 3‐thiophene carboxylic acid and 2,2,3,3,4,4,4‐heptafluoro‐1‐butanol. The synthesis of an n‐type fluorinated and terminal‐functionalized polythiophene was accomplished with the Ullmann coupling reaction. A polymer soluble in tetrahydrofuran was obtained with a molecular weight of approximately 15,000 g/mol. In solution, it exhibited a band gap of 2.4 eV, and the photoluminescent excitation and emission maxima were 370 nm and 555 nm, respectively. All peaks were bathochromically shifted when they were measured in the solid state. The glass‐transition and decomposition (in air) temperatures were 129 and 493 °C, respectively. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 43: 4280–4287, 2005     

Reactive regioregular oligothiophenes and polythiophenes with Zincke salt structure: Synthesis,reactions, and chemical properties

Polythiophenes with reactive Zincke salt structure, P4ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a and P5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a , were synthesized by the oxidation polymerization of oligothiophenes, such as 3'‐(4‐N‐(2,4‐dinitrophenyl)pyridinium chloride)?2,2':5',2'';5'',2'''‐quarterthiophene ( 4ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?) ) and 4''‐(4‐N‐(2,4‐dinitrophenyl)pyridinium chloride)?2,2';5',2'';5'',2''';5''',2''''‐quinquethiophene ( 5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?) ), with iron(III) chloride. The reaction of P5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a with R‐NH₂ [R = n‐hexyl (Hex) and phenyl (Ph)] substituted the 2,4‐dinitrophenyl group into the R group with the elimination of 2,4‐dinitroaniline to yield P5ThPy⁺R(Cl^?) . Similarly, model compounds, 4ThPy⁺R(Cl^?) and 5ThPy⁺R(Cl^?) (R = Hex and Ph), were also synthesized. In contrast to the photoluminescent 4ThPy and 5ThPy , the compounds P4ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a , P5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a , and P5ThPy⁺R(Cl^?) showed no photoluminescence because their internal pyridinium rings acted as quenchers. Cyclic voltammetry measurements suggested that P4ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a , P5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a , and P5ThPy⁺R(Cl^?) received an electrochemical reduction of the pyridinium and 2,4‐dinitrophenyl groups and oxidation of the polymer backbone. P4ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a and P5ThPy⁺DNP(Cl^?)‐a were electrically conductive (ρ = 3.0 × 10 ^{? 6} S cm ^{? 1} and 2.1 × 10 ^{? 6} S cm ^{? 1}, respectively) in the nondoped state. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Regioregular poly(3‐alkanoylthiophene): Synthesis and electrochemical,photophysical, charge transport,and photovoltaic properties

Head‐to‐tail regioregular poly(3‐heptanoylthiophene) (PHOT) was synthesized by Ni‐catalyzed polycondensation of the 2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐propanediol‐protected Grignard monomer followed by deprotection. Cyclic voltammetric (CV) study demonstrates that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of PHOT are 0.5 eV lower in energy than those of the head‐to‐tail poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (HT‐P3HT). Their optical band gaps are essentially the same. Incomplete photoluminescence (PL) quenching was observed in thin films of the 1:1 blend of PHOT and HT‐P3HT. PHOT displayed a glass transition at ～269 °C and decomposed at ～300 °C according to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) study showed that PHOT exists in a not highly ordered state in solid films especially in the π‐stacking direction. Only p‐channel activity was observed in field‐effect transistors (FETs) for PHOT. The hole mobility was on the order of 10^?4 cm² V^?1 s^?1. Photovoltaic devices with an active layer of 1:1 blend of PHOT and PC₇₁BM had a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ～0.5%. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2010     

A new donor–acceptor double‐cable carbazole polymer with perylene bisimide pendant group: Synthesis,electrochemical, and photovoltaic properties

We report here electrochemical synthesis of novel soluble donor–acceptor (D–A) polymer with suitably functionalized perylenetetracarboxylic diimide dye derivative covalently linked to carbazole moiety (Cbz‐PDI). The band gap, E_g was measured using UV–Vis spectroscopy and compared with that obtained by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Efficient intramolecular electron transfer from carbazole‐donor to perynediimide‐acceptor leads to remarkable fluorescence quenching of the perylene core. Furthermore, spectroelectrochemical property and surface morphology of the polymer film were investigated. Characteristic monoanion and dianion radical bands on the UV–Vis absorption spectra attributed to the electrochemical reduction of the neutral polymer were observed. During the reduction process, red color of the film turned into blue and violet, respectively. Finally, the photovoltaic performance of the D–A double‐cable polymer was checked and nearly 0.1% electrical conversion efficiency is obtained under simulated AM 1.5 solar light with 100 mW/cm² radiation power. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of highly transparent and hydrophobic fluorinated polyimides derived from perfluorodecylthio substituted diamine monomers

Two new perfluorodecylthio substituted aromatic diamines, namely 2,4‐diamino‐1‐(1H,1H,2H,2H‐perfluorodecathio)benzene (DAPFB) and 2,2'‐Bis((1H,1H,2H,2H‐perfluorodecyl)thio)[1,1'‐biphenyl]4,4'‐diamine (BPFBD) were synthesized and polycondensed with 4,4′‐(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) to produce two new perfluorinated polyimides (PI2 and PI4). The chemical structures of these polyimides were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Two other polyimides (PI1 and PI3) were also synthesized from 6FDA and analogous perfluorodecylthio unsubstituted diamines to investigate the incorporation effect of perfluorodecylthio group on various physical and chemical properties of the synthesized PIs. Compared with PI1 and PI3, PI2 and PI4 exhibited improved solubility, optical transparency, and hydrophobicity, lower moisture absorption, dielectric constant, and thermo‐mechanical stabilities owing to the presence of the perfluorodecylthio side group in the polymer chain. Even though thermo‐mechanical properties of PI2 and PI4 ( : 413 and 404 °C, T_g: 220 and 209 °C, tensile strength of 101 and 76 MPa, tensile modulus of 1.7 and 1.5 GPa and elongation at break of 8 and 10%, respectively) were reduced in comparison to PI1 and PI3 but still were good enough for most of the practical applications. Most importantly, the presence of the perfluorodecylthio side group in BPFBD considerably reduced the dielectric constant of PI4 to 2.71 which was quite low as aromatic polyimide. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and ion‐sensing phenomena of two new helical conjugated oligomers containing 1,10‐phenanthroline and oligo‐alkylthiophene

Two new 1,10‐phenanthroline (Phen) containing conjugated oligomers, oligo‐3,8‐bis(4‐octylthiophene‐2‐yl)‐1,10‐phenanthroline) (PDTPh) and oligo‐3,8‐bis‐(4‐octyl‐5‐(4‐ctylthiophene‐2‐yl)thiophene‐2‐yl)‐1,10‐phenanthroline) (PTTPh), as well as their corresponding monomers (OTPhOT and OTOTPhOTOT) were prepared and their metal ion‐sensing properties were investigated. The oligomers showed high thermal stability, good proccessibility, and gave varied color when reacted with different metal ions. Oligomers also showed distinct responses toward metal ions when compared with their corresponding monomers, suggesting that the ionochromic responses were determined by not only the coordinating ability of Phen unit but also the conformation of oligomer chains. Moreover, the differences in the ion‐sensing behaviors between OTPhOT and OTOTPhOTOT also suggested that the coordination ability of Phen depends on its substituents. The oligo‐alkylthiophene moieties in PDTPh and PTTPh acted as spacers to reorganize the conformation of the oligomer chains, as well as the electron donating groups to adjust the coordination ability of the Phen. These findings provide a clue for designing Phen‐containing ion‐sensors for specified ion‐sensing applications. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 1586–1597, 2008     

Functionalized poly(phenylene‐alt‐bithiophenes): Synthesis,chiroptical properties,and interaction with chiral amines

New functionalized, (a)chiral poly(phenylene‐alt‐bithiophene)s were prepared and their chiroptical properties were studied. The polymers were prepared by a Stille coupling reaction and were functionalized with protected carboxylic acid and amino functions (tert‐butyl ester and BOC respectively). The polymers are present as well conjugated rigid rods in solution, which (chirally) aggregate in nonsolvents and film. In a next step, the protecting group (tert‐butyl ester in case of the carboxylic acid) was removed. Aggregation of this polymer can be induced by addition of amines; if chiral amines are used, the polymer chains chirally stack. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and Characterizations of Regioregular Poly(3‐alkylthiophene) with Alter1483ting Dodecyl/1H,1H,2H,2H‐Perfluorooctyl Side Chains

A regioregular poly[4′‐dodecyl‐3‐(1H,1H,2H,2H‐perfluorooctyl)‐2,2′‐bithiophene] (P3DDFT) with alternating alkyl and semifluoroalkyl side chains were synthesized. Short ethylene spacer between perfluorohexyl part and thiophene did not largely affect the absorption and emission properties of the polythiophene backbone in comparison with poly(3‐dodecylthiophene) (P3DDT). P3DDFT showed a larger onset of the oxidation potential (+0.17 V) observed by cyclic voltamogram due to the electron withdrawing effect of the fluoroalkyl part. Thermal analysis and X‐ray diffraction patterns indicated that P3DDFT in the solid state forms a semicrystalline lamellar structure that is similar to that of P3DDT. Ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy was also used to investigate their electron structure in the films. Comparison of hole mobilities in the films suggested that P3DDFT could have a less ordered packing structure compared to P3DDT both in the bulk and at the dielectric interface.

     

Synthesis,characterization, and bulk properties of amphiphilic copolymers containing fluorinated methacrylates from sequential copper‐mediated radical polymerization

The partly fluorinated monomers, 2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl methacrylate (3FM), 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5‐octafluoropentyl methacrylate (8FM), and 1,1,2,2‐tetrahydroperfluorodecyl methacrylate (17FM) have been used in the preparation of block copolymers with methyl methacrylate (MMA), 2‐methoxyethyl acrylate (MEA), and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) by Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization. A kinetic study of the 3FM homopolymerization initiated with ethyl bromoisobutyrate and Cu(I)Br/N‐(n‐propyl)‐2‐pyridylmethanimine reveals a living/controlled polymerization in the range 80–110 °C, with apparent rate constants of 1.6 · 10⁻⁴ s⁻¹ to 2.9 · 10⁻⁴ s⁻¹. Various 3FM containing block copolymers with MMA are prepared by sequential monomer addition or from a PMMA macroinitiator in all cases with controlled characteristics. Block copolymers of 3FM and PEGMA resulted in block copolymers with PDI < 1.22, whereas block copolymers from 3FM and MEA have less controlled characteristics. The block copolymers based on MMA with 8FM and 17 FM have PDI's < 1.30. The glass transition temperatures of the block copolymers are dominated by the majority monomer, as the sequential monomer addition results in too short pure blocks to induce observable microphase separation. The thermal stability of the fluorinated poly((meth)acrylate)s in inert atmosphere is less than that of corresponding nonfluorinated poly((meth)acrylate)s. The presence of fluorinated blocks significantly increases the advancing water contact angle of thin films compared to films of the nonfluorinated poly((meth)acrylate)s. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new donor‐acceptor type polymeric material from a thiophene derivative and its electrochromic properties

A new electrochromic polymer, poly(2,3,5,8‐tetra(thiophen‐2‐yl)quinoxaline) (PTTQ), was synthesized electrochemically and its electrochromic properties were investigated. The polymer was characterized by Cyclic Voltammetry, Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy, UV‐Vis‐NIR Spectroscopy, and colorimetry. Spectroelectrochemistry analysis demonstrated that the polymer can undergo both p‐ and true n‐type doping processes. The polymer, (PTTQ), has three accessible color states: an oxidized transmissive, a neutral light bluish‐green, and a reduced transmissive light gray. Switching ability of the polymer was evaluated by kinetic studies. The polymer revealed an excellent optical contrast of 98% in the NIR region. Outstanding optical contrast in the NIR region, high stability and fast switching times make this polymer an excellent candidate for NIR device applications. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and cationic photopolymerization of new fluorinated,polyfunctional propenyl ether oligomers

New fluorinated, polyfunctional propenyl ether functionalized resins were synthesized, and their behavior in cationic photopolymerization was investigated. The photopolymerization proceeded efficiently with a high double‐bond conversion (>90%), giving rise to UV‐cured coatings characterized by low glass‐transition temperatures (?33 °C ≤ glass‐transition temperature ≤ ?15 °C) and hydrophobic surface properties. A fluorinated additive was also employed as a reactive additive in the cationic photopolymerization of trimethylolpropane tripropenyl ether, increasing the double‐bond conversion, polymer network flexibility, thermal stability, and surface hydrophobicity. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and properties of polythiophenes with conjugated side‐chains containing carbon–carbon double and triple bonds

Two soluble side‐chain conjugated polythiophenes, poly{3‐[2‐(4‐octyloxy‐phenyl)‐vinyl]‐thiophene} (P3OPVT) and poly{3‐(4‐octyloxy‐phenylethynyl)‐thiophene} (P3OPET) have been synthesized successfully. In P3OPVT and P3OPET, substituted benzene rings are connected with the polythiophene backbone through trans carbon–carbon double bond and carbon–carbon triple bond, respectively. Absorption spectra of the P3OPVT and P3OPET both show two absorption peaks located in UV and visible region, respectively. The results of optical and electrochemical measurements indicate that the conjugated side‐chains can reduce the bandgap effectively. This type of side‐chain conjugated polythiophenes may be promising for the applications in polymer photovoltaic cells and field effect transistors. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of highly fluorinated poly(phthalazinone ether)s based on AB‐type monomers

Four different fluorinated methyl‐ and phenyl‐substituted 4‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐(pentafluorophenyl)‐phthalazin‐1(2H)‐ones, AB‐type phthalazinone monomers, have been successfully synthesized by nucleophilic addition–elimination reactions of methyl‐ and phenyl‐substituted 2‐((4‐hydroxy)benzoyl)benzoic acid with 1‐(pentafluorophenyl)hydrazine. Under mild reaction conditions, the AB‐type monomers underwent self‐condensation polymerization reactions successfully and gave fluorinated poly(phthalazinone ether)s with high molecular weights. Detailed structural characterization of the AB‐type monomers and fluorinated polymers was determined by ¹H NMR, ¹⁹F NMR, FTIR, and GPC. The solubility, thermal properties, mechanical properties, water contact angles, and optical absorption of the polymers were evaluated. The polymers had high T_gs varying from 337 to 349 °C and decomposition temperatures (T_{d, 25} wt %) above 409 °C. Tough, flexible films were cast from THF and chloroform solutions. The films showed excellent tensile strengths ranging from 70 to 85 MPa with good hydrophobicities with water contact angles higher than 95.5 °C. The polymers had absorption edges below 340 nm and very low absorbance per cm at higher wavelengths 500–2500 nm. These results indicate that the polymers are promising as high performance materials, for example, membranes and hydrophobic materials. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Synthesis and surface properties of novel fluorinated polyurethane base on F‐containing chain extender

A novel fluorinated chain extender, (1‐(ethyl(2‐hydroxyethyl)amino)‐3‐ ((3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8‐tridecafluorooctyl)oxy)propan‐2‐ol) (FPO), was synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and elemental analysis. Poly (ether urethane)s containing various amounts of the chain extender with fluorinated side chains (FPUs) were prepared by isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), polytetra‐methylene‐ether‐glycol (PTMG), 3‐aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH‐550), and 1,4‐butandiol (BDO). Films of FPUs were investigated by water absorption, contact angle, pencil hardness, adhesive force, and thermal analysis. Coating FPUs on micro‐nano concave‐convex structure plate realizes superhydrophobic performance. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) demonstrated that there is a lot of irregular concave‐convex structure, which forms a typical air cushion model. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that surface fluorine content is 165% more than that of film average fluorine content. The superhydrophobic plate with 10% or higher F‐containing FPUs coating is of outstanding chemical corrosion resistance, excellent solvent resistance, and wear resistance.
