外场对聚(3-己基噻吩)溶液结晶行为的影响

以聚(3-己基噻吩)(P3HT)为研究对象,借助紫外-可见光谱与原子力显微镜,详细考察了旋转剪切场、紫外光照射、超声处理3种外场对P3HT/混合溶剂(CHCl3-CH2Cl2)体系结晶行为的影响,此外,还研究了P3HT溶液结晶的"记忆效应"。研究表明:旋转场能够显著提高P3HT的结晶度,而紫外光照射和超声处理易使溶液中分子链的活动性增加,对结晶性的影响不显著;施加外场并没有改变溶液中纳米线的聚集形式,仍为H聚集;P3HT溶液的初始态不同,其结晶过程中的晶体微结构及形貌也会发生变化。

2-苯基噻吩的电化学聚合

聚噻吩及其衍生物是一类重要的导电高分子材料,它们具有良好的导电性、高度稳定性以及易于调控的分子链结构．因此,自从人们发现聚噻吩以来,噻吩类化合物,尤其是3-取代噻吩的聚合和表征一直受到人们的广泛关注[1,2]．相对而言,关于2-取代噻吩的聚合几乎还是空白,以往人们对其进行电化学聚合的尝试是不成功的[3]．     

聚(3-己基)噻吩薄膜中电荷传导的研究

对两种具有相同化学结构的聚(3-己基)噻吩膜进行了电荷传导研究以检验膜的结构对载流子迁移率的影响. 一种膜是由3-己基噻吩单体经电化学合成直接制备的膜(原位生长膜); 另一种膜是将原位生长膜溶于三氯甲烷后重新滴涂而成的(滴涂膜). 研究表明, 虽然两种膜的制备方法不一样, 但在最低(0.02%)和较高(20%～30%)掺杂率下两膜中的载流子迁移率相一致; 然而在中等掺杂率区域, 两膜中的载流子迁移率明显不同. 对于原位生长膜, 载流子迁移率在低掺杂区域几乎保持不变, 当掺杂率大于1%后开始上升; 而在滴涂膜中, 随着掺杂率的增加, 迁移率先下降然后迅速升高. 上述两种迁移率变化特征分别与以前研究中观察到的电化学合成高分子膜和化学合成高分子旋涂或滴涂膜中迁移率的变化特征相一致, 表明了迁移率随掺杂率变化特征的改变是由膜的结构变化而引起的

Gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric characterization of isomeric alkylthiophenes (C20) and their occurrence in deep sea sediments

Six isomeric C₂₀ alkylthiophenes were synthesized in order to prove the occurrence of such compounds in various deep sea sediments. As expected from the analogy with the corresponding saturated hydrocarbons, 2- and 3-heptadecylthiophene have considerably longer relative retention times than the isomeric isoprenoid compounds, i.e. 2- and 3-(4,8,12-trimethyltridecyl)thiophene and 3- and 4-methyl-2-(3,7,11-trimethyldodecyl)thiophene. Covats retention indices for all compounds were determined by isothermal analysis at 190°C on two different silicone-coated capillary columns. The mass spectra of the monoalkylated thiophenes show a base peak at m/z 98 corresponding to a Mcafferty rearrangement product in the case of the 3-substituted isomers, whereas a simple benzylic cleavage dominates in the mass spectra of 2-alkylthiophenes. 4-Methyl-2-(3,7,11-trimethylodecy)thiophene is an exception from this simple rule because also shows the McLafferty rearrangement as dominant fragmentation. Two of the isoprenoid thiophenes are prominent compounds in various deep sea sediments.     

Regioselective synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted thiophenes

A highly regioselective route was established to 2-aryl-, 2-cyclohexyl-, and 2-(2-arylethyl)4-alkylthiophenes, which are potential candidates as liquid crystalline compounds of low viscosity. The key synthetic intermediates, 2-substituted-4-(chloromethyl)thiophenes 6, 14, and 20 were prepared respectively from the reactions of β, γ-epoxycarbonyl compounds 5, 13, and 19 with Lawesson's reagent in the presence of a catalytic amount of p -toluenesulfonic acid. The epoxycarbonyl compounds were obtained from the TiCl₄-mediated reactions of 2-(chloromethyl)-3-(trimethylsliyl)propene (10) with acid chlorides followed by epoxidation with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, or from prior epoxidation followed by oxidation with pyridinium dichromate of homoallylic alcohols 3. The homoallylic alcohols 3 were synthesized from the reactions of 2-(chloromethyl)-3-(trichlorosilyl)propene (2) with aldehydes in N, N-dimethylformamide. Copper (I) catalysed cross-coupling reactions of 2-substituted-4-(bromomethyl)thiophenes (which were prepared by transhalogenation of 2-substituted-4- (chloromethyl)thiophenes with NaBr in acetone) with Grignard reagents afforded 2,4-disubstituted thiophenes. Using this method, eleven 2,4-disubstituted thiophenes were synthesized and their potentials as liquid crystalline compound of low viscosity were examined. The synthesized 2-(4-cyanophenyl)-4-pentylthiophene was observed to have a lower melting point than the corresponding 2,5-disubstituted thiophene. This observation is consistent with the expectation from the basis of molecular linearity which can affect the viscosity and/or melting point of crystalline compounds.     

A selective and direct synthesis of 2-bromo-4-alkylthiophenes: Convenient and straightforward approaches for the synthesis of head-to-tail (HT) and tail-to-tail (TT) dihexyl-2,2′-bithiophenes

A straightforward method for the synthesis of 2-bromo-4-alkylthiophenes was developed, and the desired products were obtained in the highest chemical yields (>90%) reported to date. 2-Bromo-4-alkylthiophenes were synthesized by regioselective lithiating of 3-alkylthiophenes with n-BuLi and quenching with bromine at −78 °C. Moreover, a simple and efficient protocol for the synthesis of dihexyl-2,2′-bithiophenes was developed by employing 2-bromo-4-hexylthiophene instead of the commonly used monomer, 2-bromo-3-hexylthiophene. Kumada and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions were conducted to synthesize the desired products as head-to-tail (HT) and tail-to-tail (TT) regioisomers in high yields and excellent selectivity.     

Spectroelectrochemical properties of poly(4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bithiophenes) and poly( 3-alkylthiophenes): A comparative study

The influence of alkyl side chain distribution patterns on the Spectroelectrochemical properties of poly(alkylthiophenes) has been studied. Two types of compounds were studied as representing different coupling patterns:(i) poly(4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bithiophenes), which represent head-to-head and tail-to-tail coupled poly(al-kylthiophene) chains; and(ii) poly(3-alkylthiophenes), which represent head-to-tail coupled poly(alkylthiophene) chains.Both types of polymers can be obtained chemically or electrochemically by the constant potential method or the potential scanning method. Poly(4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bithiophenes) differ significantly from poly(3-alkylthiophenes) in their voltammetric and spectroelectrocheinical properties. The oxidative doping of these compounds occurs in a very narrow potential range (35 mV as determined by static Spectroelectrochemical studies) and is significantly retarded in dynamic measurements. Analysis of the changes in absorption in the 500 nm spectral region and the observation of an induction period in the oxidation at constant potential seem to indicate that the oxidative doping is preceded by structural changes which facilitate the oxidation.Although in the neutral state poly(4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bithiophenes) absorb at 390 nm, i.e. their π→π^* transition is blue-shifted as compared to poly(3-alkylthiophenes), the polaronic states included by doping are located in the same spectral region for both families of polymers. This observation is consistent with the postulate of significant changes induced by doping in poly(4,4'-dialkyl-2,2'-bithiophenes). The more twisted head-to-head and tail-to-tail coupled poly(alkylthiophene) chains must adopt a more planar structure, similar to poly(3-alkylthiophenes), in order to create polaronic states and accommodate the charge-compensating anions.     

Poly(3-alkylthiophenes): new sorption materials for solid phase microextraction of drugs isolated from human plasma

A novel sorbent in solid phase microextraction (SPME) method based on poly(3-alkylthiophenes) was used in the isolation of linezolid from human plasma samples following liquid chromatography determination. The effect of extraction time on the sorption capacity of the SPME process was studied and pointed at 10 min both for adsorption and desorption. Poly(3-methylthiophene) and poly(3-nonylthiophene) were applied for the extraction of linezolid from water solutions. In plasma samples, four coatings including polythiophene and poly(3-penthylthiophene) were investigated. With these measurements, correlation coefficients were calculated in the range from 0.9820 to 0.9995, and the relative standard deviations were below 15%. That allowed claiming that the synthesized and described materials can be successfully applied in the analysis of linezolid also from other matrices such as urine or blood.     

A Convenient Synthesis of 3-Alkylthiophenes

The known procedures for the synthesis of 3-alkylthiophenes are rather lengthy or involved. By using the NiDPPP⁺⁺ catalyzed cross-coupling method between 3-bromothiophene and Grignard reagents derived from alkyl halides a number of 3-alkylthiophenes have been prepared in a one-step reaction in good to excellent yields.     

Synthesis of MAPA Reagents and 2-Alkyl(aryl)aminopyridines from 2-Bromopyridine Using the Goldberg Reaction

A short and economical synthesis of various 2-methylaminopyidine amides (MAPA) from 2-bromopyridine has been developed using the catalytic Goldberg reaction. The effective catalyst was formed in situ by the reaction of CuI and 1,10-phenanthroline in a 1/1 ratio with a final loading of 0.5–3 mol%. The process affords high yields and can accommodate multigram-scale reactions. A modification of this method provides a new preparation of 2-N-substituted aminopyridines from various secondary N-alkyl(aryl)formamides and 2-bromopyridine. The intermediate aminopyridine formamide is cleaved in situ through methanolysis or hydrolysis to give 2-alkyl(aryl)aminopyridines in high yields.     

间甲基苯胺电化学聚合以及它与对苯二胺电化学共聚的 原位紫外-可见光谱

在0.5 mol•dm－3硫酸介质中, 循环伏安法电解间甲苯胺的原位紫外可见光谱图表明聚间甲基苯胺产生在氧化铟锡导电玻璃电极表面上. 在恒电位条件下, 用原位紫外-可见光谱较详细地研究了间甲基苯胺在氧化铟锡(ITO)上的电化学聚合. 结果表明间甲基苯胺只能在较高电解电位和单体浓度足够大的条件下才能发生电化学聚合. 在0.7 V(相对于饱和的Ag/AgCl), 0.2 mol•dm－3的间甲基苯胺和0.9 V, 20 mmol•dm－3的间甲基苯的实验条件下, 尽管在ITO电极上没有发生电化学均聚合, 但原位紫外-可见光谱表明在电极表面上可能还形成低分子量的齐聚物. 在低电位0.8 V下, 电化学聚合200 mmol•dm－3间甲苯胺时, 有明显的诱导期存在. 在恒电位电解的条件下, 相应的原位紫外-可见光谱和聚合物的傅立叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)表明间甲基苯胺和对苯二胺能发生电化学共聚反应, 由于对苯二胺可能与间甲基苯胺形成了具有较强反应活性的中间体, 使得对苯二胺的加入不但促进和加速了聚合反应, 而且还结合进聚合物中形成了phenazine或类似于phenazine的环结构.

Binary All-polymer Solar Cells with a Perhalogenated-Thiophene-Based Solid Additive Surpass 18 % Efficiency

Morphological control of all-polymer blends is quintessential yet challenging in fabricating high-performance organic solar cells. Recently, solid additives (SAs) have been approved to be capable in tuning the morphology of polymer: small-molecule blends improving the performance and stability of devices. Herein, three perhalogenated thiophenes, which are 3,4-dibromo-2,5-diiodothiophene (SA-T1), 2,5-dibromo-3,4-diiodothiophene (SA-T2), and 2,3-dibromo-4,5-diiodothiophene (SA-T3), were adopted as SAs to optimize the performance of all-polymer organic solar cells (APSCs). For the blend of PM6 and PY-IT, benefitting from the intermolecular interactions between perhalogenated thiophenes and polymers, the molecular packing properties could be finely regulated after introducing these SAs. In situ UV/Vis measurement revealed that these SAs could assist morphological character evolution in the all-polymer blend, leading to their optimal morphologies. Compared to the as-cast device of PM6 : PY-IT, all SA-treated binary devices displayed enhanced power conversion efficiencies of 17.4–18.3 % with obviously elevated short-circuit current densities and fill factors. To our knowledge, the PCE of 18.3 % for SA-T1-treated binary ranks the highest among all binary APSCs to date. Meanwhile, the universality of SA-T1 in other all-polymer blends is demonstrated with unanimously improved device performance. This work provide a new pathway in realizing high-performance APSCs.
