Popis: The synthesis of several highly phenylated PPV derivatives by a chlorine precursor route (CPR) was investigated in order to understand its scope. Three 1,4-bis(chloromethyl)benzene monomers were prepared via a robust and versatile synthetic procedure involving the Diels-Alder reaction. The monomers were then polymerized to the corresponding precursor polymers with about 1.0 equivalent of potassium t-butoxide in THF. Only one monomer gave a soluble precursor polymer while the other two gave insoluble precursor polymers. The soluble precursor polymer was deposited as thin films and then converted to the corresponding PPV derivative, which showed green photoluminesence and electroluminesence.
