Phenylene dendrimers and novel hyperbranched polyphenylenes as light emissive materials for blue OLEDs

New materials based on low-generation polyphenylene dendrimers with the light emission in the blue spectrum range were synthesized and examined for an efficient organic light emitting diodes (OLED) application. It has been shown that the ratio of p-phenylene groups with high fluorescence parameters to 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene groups with low fluorescent parameters may be the possible reason for the experimental variations of relative quantum yield of photoluminescence in the compounds explored. The quantum yield value is increased with a number of dendrimer generations up to 50–70%. The role of bromine atoms as the luminescence quenchers have been demonstrated, which is important for synthesis route choice.     

Poly(ortho‐phenylene ethynylene)s: Synthetic accessibility and optical properties

Poly(ortho‐phenylene ethynylene)s (PoPEs) have been synthesized via an in situ activation/coupling AB′ polycondensation protocol. The resulting polymers have been characterized by several analytical methods and are shown to have no structural defects. Although the Sonogashira–Hagihara polycondensation reaction is less efficient than for the preparation of the corresponding meta‐ and para‐linked polymers, presumably because of steric hindrance caused by the ortho substituents, the process can be accelerated by the use of microwave irradiation. Optical spectroscopy indicates solvent‐dependent conformational changes between extended transoid and helical cisoid conformations, providing the first experimental evidence for solvophobically driven folding of the PoPE backbone. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

GAS SORPTION AND TRANSPORT IN POLY (PHENYLENE OXIDE)(PPO)AND ARYL-BROMINATED PPO MEMBRANES

The apparent solubility (S), concentration-average diffusivity (D), and permeability (P), for C0_2, CH_4 and N_2 through PPO and aryl-brominated PPO at 35℃for pressure ranging from 1 to 26 atm are reported. It is found that P, D, and S of the membranes to all the three gases vary with the extent of bromination. S increases with the increase of the percent of bromine in each case, but D to CO_2 increases remarkably only at higher degree of brominafion, and therefore, P to CO_2 is increased by more than 100% over a wide range ofpressure in the case. The solubility data are well described by the dual mode sorption model. It is found that the gas molecules sorbed by the Langmuir mode are relatively more immobilized and the contribution of the nonequilibrinm character of the polymer to gas permeation increases obviously for CO_2 and is hardly changed for CH_4 with increasing bromine content. These observations are interpreted in terms of changes in specific free volume (SFV)and the cohesive energy density (CED) of the polymers.     

Synthesis and characterization of polymethacrylates containing conjugated oligo(phenylene ethynylene)s as side chains

In order to form suitable systems designed for resonance energy transfer, a series of monodisperse methacrylate‐based monomers containing rigid π‐conjugated oligo(phenylene ethynylenes) with different sizes of the conjugated systems ( M1 – M3 ), and therefore different optoelectronic properties, were synthesized and subsequently polymerized using the reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer polymerization technique ( P1 – P3 ). In addition, these oligomers were also copolymerized with methyl methacrylate. The obtained polymers were characterized by ¹H NMR spectroscopy, size exclusion chromatography, and analytical ultracentrifugation. The photophysical properties of the polymers were studied by UV–vis absorption and emission spectroscopy in diluted solutions as well as in thin films and compared to the photophysics of the corresponding monomers. Thereby, changes going from monomeric to polymeric systems could be detected in fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes pointing to energy trapping, e.g., energy transfer. Donor–acceptor copolymers containing different numbers of monomeric units within the side chain exhibit differences in the emission spectra, indicating that energy trapping in polymers is very sensitive to structural properties such as the chain length. UV–vis absorption spectroscopy as well as time‐resolved lifetime studies indicate intrapolymer and interpolymer energy transfer. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hydrated Rare Earth Structural Networks containing the Phenylene‐1, 2‐dioxydiacetate (PDDA) Ligand

Reaction of LnCl₃ with Na₂(PDDA) (PDDA = phenylene‐1, 2‐dioxydiacetate) in a 1 to 2 mol ratio in aqueous solution yielded [Ln₂(PDDA)₃(H₂O)₆] · 2H₂O, structurally characterized for Ln = Ce ( 1 ), Sm ( 2 ) (redetermination), Tb ( 3 ) and Y ( 4 ) in a monoclinic C2/c array, a second related structural form [orthorhombic, Pbcn] being obtained for Tb ( 5 ), Ho ( 6 ) and Er ( 7 ). The ‘domains of existence' of these two previously described forms are now extended to Ce–Dy, Y, and Eu–Er, respectively. Reaction under the same conditions for the heavier Yb³⁺ ion yielded [Yb₂(PDDA)₃(H₂O)₆]_(∞|∞) · 4H₂O ( 8 ), orthorhombic, Pbca. In the case of Ln = La the bimetallic species [NaLa(PDDA)₂(H₂O)₂]_(∞|∞) · 4H₂O ( 9 ) was obtained, while reaction of LnCl₃ with Na₂(PDDA) in a 1 to 3 mol ratio led to the isolation of the isotypic (monoclinic, P2₁/c) [NaLn(PDDA)₂(H₂O)₂]_(∞|∞) · 4H₂O) for Ln = Ce ( 10 ) and Sm ( 12 ). With the smaller Ln = Yb, the more definitively bimetallic [NaYb(PDDA)₂(H₂O)₂]_(∞|∞) · 3H₂O ( 13 ) (triclinic, P$\bar{1}$ )) was obtained, the trihydrate solvation ascribed differing from that recorded (dihydrate) in a cosynchronous report.     

Enormously extended π-electronic conjugation system of dimeric octaethylporphyrin transmitted with anthracene

Based on the fact that anthracene (Anth) possesses much higher similarity in electron-releasing ability to porphyrin nucleus than the other polyacenes, the dimeric octaethylporphyrin (OEP) derivatives 4 and 5 (OEP–Anth–OEP) were synthesized and their structure–property relationships were examined, as compared with related OEP dimers 1–3. Among them, the derivative 4 showed enormously high electronic communication between two terminal OEP rings, potentially providing a suitable unit of the electronic structure for molecular design of the OEP devices operating with less energy and with higher sensitivity to outside stimuli.
