In this study, a novel series of conjugated monomers containing furan and fluorene units; 2,7-di(furan-2-yl)-9H-fluoren-9-one (FOF), 2-(2-(furan-2-yl)-9H-fluoren-7-yl)furan (FFF), and 2-(2-(furan-2-yl)-9,9-dihexyl-9H-fluoren-7-yl)furan (FHF) were synthesized and their electrochemical polymerization were achieved via potential cycling. Optical and electrochemical properties of the polymers, poly(2,7-di(furan-2-yl)-9H-fluoren-9-one) (PFOF), poly(2-(2-(furan-2-yl)-9H-fluoren-7-yl)furan (PFFF) and poly(2-(2-(furan-2-yl)-9,9-dihexyl-9H-fluoren-7-yl)furan) (PFHF) were investigated and it was found that polymer films exhibit reversible redox behavior (Epox = 1.083 V for PFOF, Epox= 0.915 V for PFFF and Epox= 0.985 V for PFHF) accompanied with a reversible electrochromic behavior, orange to green for PFOF, yellow to dark blue for PFFF and orange to green for PFHF during oxidation. Their band gap values (Eg) were found to be 2.32, 2.49 and 2.61 eV for PFOF, PFFF and PFHF, respectively.

In this study, a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) study is carried out to estimate the physical properties of substituted polypyrrole (PPy) and polyparaphenylene (PPP). The effects of the substituted side-chains composed of epsilon-caprolactone, ethylene and styrene oligomers on the glass transition temperature, cohesive energy and dielectric constant of PPy and PPP are studied and the results are analyzed in terms of backbone structure, the type and the length of the side-chains. It is s...
