Popis: | Three new building blocks containing the electron-donor fused-ring motifs carbazole, dithienosilole (DTS) and dithienopyrrole (DTP) and the 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine electron-acceptor motif were designed and synthesized. Directed by transition metal ions, the self-assembly of the building blocks triggered polymerization to form the corresponding metallo-supramolecular polymers PCzTPY , PSiTPY and PNTPY , respectively. The UV–vis absorption maxima of the building blocks occur at long wavelengths (351, 368 and 430 nm for CzTPY , SiTPY and NTPY , respectively), which arises from intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) transitions. However, the absorption maxima of their corresponding metallo-supramolecular polymers are clearly red-shifted (to 394, 431 and 509 nm for PCzTPY , PSiTPY and PNTPY , respectively), which is caused by the incorporation of the transition metal ion into the backbones of the target polymers. Based on the above strategies, the resulting metallo-polymers exhibit reduced energy gaps, which are 2.07, 1.97 and 1.56 eV for the PCzTPY , PSiTPY and PNTPY metallo-supramolecular polymers, respectively. |
