Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Polyfluorene Derivatives

Article Preview

Abstract:

A novel series of copolymers containing fluorene units are synthesized by Sonogashira coupling reaction in mild condition. Benzene, naphthalene and anthracene are co-polymerized with ethynylfluorene, respectively. The structures are confirmed by NMR, Mass, Elemental analysis and GPC. The polymers have good thermal properties with glass-transition temperature of 90-155°C(Tg), and they have bandgaps from 2.21-2.77 eV. The results of photoluminescence in solid state show that introduction of huge chromophore could effectively suppress the formation of aggregates and excimers which typically cause red-shifted or new emission.
