Popis: | New macromonomers containing dialdehyde functionalities placed at the middle or at the end of the chains were synthesized in two reaction steps. First, using ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of e-caprolactone (CL) or atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene (St) in the presence of proper initiators provided well-defined low molecular weight polymers with dibromobenzene moieties. In the second step, using Suzuki couplings of these dibromobenzene functions with 4-formylphenyl boronic acid, macromonomers having 4,4‘-dicarbaldehyde terphenyl moieties were obtained. Poly(phenylenevinylene)s (PPVs), with lateral subtituents PSt or PCL chains respectively, were synthesized by following a Wittig polycondensation in combination with bis(triphenylphosphonium) salts in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide. The resulting PPVs were soluble in common organic solvents at room temperature as were the starting macromonomers. All of the starting and intermediate polymers and the final PPVs were characteri... |
