A modular procedure for the synthesis of functionalised β-substituted terthiophene monomers for conducting polymer applications
摘要:
An efficient modular strategy has been developed for the synthesis of beta-functionalised terthiophene monomers using Suzuki-Miyaura and Wittig/Horner-Emmons chemistries. This paper discusses the problems encountered with converting the beta-terthiophene aldehyde building block to the beta-terthiophene phosphonium salt and the use of this material in a Wittig condensation. An improved strategy using the beta-terthiophene phosphonate building block constructed via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling protocols was developed. We have synthesised and characterised a broad range of functionalised terthiophene materials that have been designed for specific end-use applications. The availability of these building blocks has dramatically increased access to a range of key monomers. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
β-Terthiophene aldehyde and phosphonate: key building blocks for the synthesis of functionalised conducting polymers
摘要:
A simple and efficient methodology has been developed for the synthesis of beta -functionalised terthiophene monomers, conducting polymer precursors. Using a building block approach, the key materials, beta -terthiophene aldehyde and phosphonate, were constructed with Suzuki chemistry. Reactions of these building blocks with the appropriate coupling partner under Wittig/Horner-Emmons conditions provides conjugatively-linked functionalised monomers. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
