An effective multipurpose building block for 3D electropolymerisation: 2,2′-Bis(2,2′-bithiophene-5-yl)-3,3′-bithianaphthene
摘要:
Novel thiophene-based oligomer 2 2 -bis(2 2 -bithiophene-5-yl)-3 3 -bithianaphthene (TX) was designed and synthesized and its electrochemical and spectral properties characterised TX was readily polymerised electrochemically to form well organized conducting homopolymer films on various solid electrode substrates Moreover it was successfully used for deposition by electropolymerisation of electrochemically active thin films of co-polymers with three different monomers of functionalised bis(2 2'-bithienyl)methane derivatives It appeared that TX was an effective crosslinker and 3D promoter in these electropolymerisations involving co-monomers intrinsically showing limited aptitude for the electropolymerisation or forming polymer films of low conductivity This attractive TX ability stems from combination of its (i) high conjugation efficiency in each of the two planar moieties (ii) intrinsic 3D structure on account of the presence of the central node and (iii) intrinsic regioselectivity in electropolymerisation on account of the positions of the two available free a-thiophene sites (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
