A new thiophene-based monomer; 1,2-bis(thiophen-3-ylmethoxy)benzene (BTMB) has been synthesized and chemical structure of the monomer was characterized. Polymerization of BTMB and characterization of the resulting polymer P(BTMB) were performed. Spectroelectrochemical analysis of the P (BTMB) reflected electronic transitions at 400 nm, 520 nm and similar to 720 nm, corresponding to pi-pi* transition, polaron and bipolaron band formation respectively. Switching ability was evaluated by a kinetic study via measuring the transmittance (%T) at the maximum contrast. Dual type all polymer electrochromic device (ECD) based on P(BTMB) and poly(ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT) was constructed. Spectroelectrochemistry and switching ability of the devices were investigated by UV-vis spectroscopy. (C) 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.

Synthesis and characterization of poly(N-(2-(thiophen-3-yl)methylcarbonyloxyethyl)maleimide) and its spectroelectrochemical properties Ak, Metin; Durmus, Asuman; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-06-01) A new monomer; N-(2-(thiophen-3-yl)methylcarbonyloxyethyl) maleimide (NMT) was synthesized. The chemical structure of the monomer was characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (H-1-NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. Electrochemical polymerization of NMT was performed in acetonitrile (AN)/borontrifloride ethylether (BFEE) solvent mixture (1:1, v/v) where tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB) was utilized as the supporting electrolyte. The resulting conducting polymer was charac...
Synthesis and electrochromic properties of conducting polymers of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole and their use in eletctrochromic devices Varış, Serhat; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2006) A new monomer; 1-(4-Nitrophenyl)-2,5-di-2-thienyl-1H-pyrrole SNSNO2 was synthesized through the Knorr-Paal condensation reaction of 1,4-di-2-thienyl-1,4-butanedione and p-nitroaniline. The chemical structure of monomer and polymer were characterized via Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Chemical polymerization produced a polymer which was completely soluble in organic solvents. Electrochemical behaviors of SNSNO2 and SNSNO2 in the presence of E...
Synthesis and electrochromic properties of conducting polymers of succinic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl) ester and their use in electrochromic devices Saçan, Lale; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2006) A new monomer; succinic acid bis-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)ester (SATE) was synthesized through the esterification reaction of 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethanol and succinyl chloride. The chemical structure of monomer was characterized via Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Electrochemical behaviors of SATE alone and SATE in the presence of thiophene were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The synthesis of homopolymer and copolymer were achieved via constan...

The chemical structure of the monomer was characterized by H-1 NMR, FTIR and mass spectroscopy techniques. Electrochemical polymerization of DDQ and characterization of the resulting polymer [P(DDQ)] was performed. Moreover, the spectroelectrochemical and electrochromic properties of the polymer film were investigated. P(DDQ) has a low oxidation potential (0.9 V) and low band gap (1...
Synthesis of a dipyrromethane functionalized monomer and optoelectrochromic properties of its polymer Ak, Metin; Gancheva, Valeria; Terlemezyan, Levon; Tanyeli, Ghangir; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2008-08-01) A dipyrromethane functionalized monomer; 5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)dipyrromethane (BPDP) was synthesized. The structure of the monomer was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (H-1 NMR and C-13 NMR) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies. Electrochemical polymerization of BPDP was performed in acetonitrile (AN)/LiClO4. The resulting conducting polymer was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and electrical conductivity measurements. Spectroelectrochemical behavior and switching ability of P(B...
