Terephthalic acid bis-(thiophen-3-ylmethyl)thioester (TTMT) was synthesized via the reaction of thiophen-3-ylmethanethiol with terephthaloyl dichloride. Nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies were utilized for the characterization of the monomer. This 3-functionalized thiophene monomer was polymerized in the presence of thiophene (Th) and pyrrole (Py) upon constant potential application in acetonitrile/tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB). The resulting copolymers were characterized via cyclic voltammetry (CV), FTIR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), four-probe technique conductivity measurement and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Spectroelectrochemical analysis of P(TTMT-co-Th) revealed π to π* transition at 476 nm with a band gap of 2.0 eV whereas, λmax and Eg were found as 375 nm and 2.4 eV for P(TTMT-co-Py), respectively. Dual type electrochromic devices (ECDs) of P(TTMT-co-Th) and P(TTMT-co-Py) with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) were constructed. Spectroelectrochemistry, switching ability, open circuit memory and stability of the devices were examined by UV-Vis spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The device P(TTMT-co-Th)/PEDOT switches between brown and blue upon application of 0.0 V and +2.6 V, respectively with 11% optical contrast and 1.1 s as the switching time. On the other hand, P(TTMT-co-Py)/PEDOT ECD exhibits greenish yellow, grayish red and blue colors with the application of -2.4 V, 0.0 V and +0.8 V, respectively and the contrast between extreme potentials was 17.5% with a switching time of 1.6 s. 1-(4-Fluorophenyl)-2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrole (FPTP) was synthesized and polymerized both chemically and electrochemically. Several analytical techniques, such as NMR, FTIR, CV, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), four-probe conductivity measurement, SEM were utilized when applicable. Spectroelectrochemistry experiments reflected a π to π* transition at 398 nm with a band gap energy of 1.94 eV for the polymer. A dual type electrochromic device (ECD) of PFPTP and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) was constructed. The device switches between yellowish brown and blue upon application of 0.8 V and +1.1 V, respectively. Optical contrast was calculated as 19.4% with a switching time of 1.4 s at maximum contrast point.

Synthesis and characterization of a new soluble polythiophene derivative and its electrochromic application
Tarkuç, Simge; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2006)
The Knorr-Paal reaction of 1,4-di(2-thienyl)-1,4-butanedione with aniline to yield 1-phenyl-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole (PTP) was performed in the presence of catalytical amounts of p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA). Chemical polymerization of the monomer yielded a soluble polymer. Structures of both the monomer and the polymer were investigated by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H and 13C NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. The average molecular weight of the chemically synthesized polymer w...
Synthesis, characterization and electrochromic properties of copolymer of terephthalic acid bis-(thiophen-3-yl-methyl) thioester with thiophene
Turkarslan, O; Erden, A; Sahin, E; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Informa UK Limited, 2006-01-01)
Terephthalic acid bis-(thiophen-3-yl-methyl thioester) (TTMT) was synthesized via the reaction of thiophen-3-yl methanethiol with terephthaloyl dichloride. Nuclear magnetic resonance ( H-1-NMR) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were utilized for the characterization of the monomer. Electrochemical copolymerization of TTMT with thiophene in acetonitrile/boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (AN/BFEE) (8:2, v/v) solvent mixture was realized by using tetrabutylammonium tetrafluorobor...
Characterization of conducting polymers of ester linkage containing thiophene derivatives via mass spectroscopy
Aslan, Evren; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2004)
In order to investigate the thermal and structural characteristics of terepthalic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)ester (TATE), decanedioic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl- ethyl) ester (DATE) and octanoic acid 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester (OTE), their corresponding homopolymers, copolymers with thiophene and polythiophene, pyrolysis mass spectrometry technique was utilized. The results were discussed in detail considering the effects of spacer group in between ester linkages. Thermal Gravimetry Analysis was used ...
Modified acrylic hydrogels as controlled release systems
Pınardağ, Fatma Esra; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Chemistry (2006)
In this study, pH-sensitive poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels were synthesized as controlled release systems in the presence of N,N-methylene bisacrylamide as crosslinker and ammonium persulfate as initiator. A set of hydrogels were used in the form they were prepared. One set of hydrogels were prepared as porous networks by incorporating sodium chloride into the reaction medium and then leaching of it after the completion of polymerization reaction. Two sets of hydrogels were modified by argon-pla...
Synthesis and characterization of poly(dihalophenylene oxide)s and its derivatives from diammine bis(trihalophenolato) Cu(II) complexes
Sonsuz, Muammer; Gökağaç Arslan, Gülsün; Department of Chemistry (2004)
In this study, synthesis and characterization of poly(dihalophenylene oxide)s were done by thermal decomposition of diamminebis(trichlorophenolato) copper(II) and diamminebis(tribromophenolato) Cu(II) complexes in solid state. 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP), 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP) and ammonia were used as ligands in the complex syntheses. The complexes were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, FTIR, DSC, mass spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility and C, H, N elemental analyses. Synthesized complexe...
