A thiophene-functionalized monomer 1-phenyl-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole (PTP) was synthesized. The chemical polymerization of PTP (CPTP) was realized by using FeCl3 as the oxidant. The structures of both the monomer and the soluble polymer (CPTP) were investigated by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (H-1 and C-13 NMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR). The average molecular weight of the chemically synthesized polymer was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) as Mn = 7.2 x 10(3). The electrochemical oxidative polymerization of PTP was carried out via constant-potential electrolysis. Characterizations of the resulting polymer were done by cyclic voltammetry (CV), FTIR, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and UV-vis Spectroscopy. The conductivity of sample was measured by four-probe technique. Moreover, the spectroelectrochemical and electrochromic properties of the polymer film were investigated. Spectroelectrochemical analysis of P(PTP) revealed electronic transitions at 413, 577 and 884 mn corresponding to pi-pi* transition, polaron, and bipolaron band formations, respectively. Kinetic studies evaluated the switching ability of the P(PTP); the percent transmittance T% was found as 27%. The homopolymer of PTP was used to construct dual-type polymer electrochromic devices (ECDs) against poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). Spectroelectrochemistry, electrochromic switching and open circuit stability of the devices were investigated.

YİLDİZ, Ersin; ÇAMURLU, PINAR; Tanyeli, Cihangir; AKHMEDOV, Idris; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2008-01-15)
Here we report the synthesis of a monomer, 4-(2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)benzenamine (SNS-NH2) produced by the reaction of 1,4-di(2-thienyl)-1,4-butanedione and benzene-1,4-diamine. This monomer was electrochemically polymerized in the presence of LiClO4, NaClO4 (1:1) as the supporting electrolyte in acetonitrile. Copolymerization in the presence of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) was achieved in acetonitrile NaClO4/LiClO4 (0.1 M:0.1 M) solvent-electrolyte couple. Resulting homopolyrner and copo...

Copolymer of 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole (NTP) with 3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene (EDOT) was electrochemically synthesized and characterized. Resulting copolymer film has distinct electrochromic properties. It has five different colors (light red, red, light grey, green, and blue). At the neutral state lambda(max) x value due to the pi-pi* transition was found to be 550 nm and E-g was calculated as 1.6 eV. Double potential step chronoamperometry experiment shows that copolymer film has good...

A bifunctional amido-thiophene namely hexamethylene (bis-3-thiophene acetamide) (HMTA) was synthesized by the reaction of 3-thiophene acetic acid with hexamethylene diamine. Copolymerization in the presence of thiophene was achieved electrochemically in tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate/acetonitrile (TBAFB/AN). Spectroelectro-chemical analysis of the resulting copolymer [P(HMTA-co-Th)] reflected electronic transitions at 505 nm, 740 nm and similar to 1000 nm, revealing pi to pi* transition, polaron and b...
Synthesis and electropolymerization of 3,4-substituted quinoxaline functionalized pyrrole monomer and optoelectronic properties of its polymer
KURTAY, GÜLBİN; AK, METİN; GÜLLÜ, Mustafa; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Ak, Mine Sulak (2014-08-01)
We synthesized a new electroactive pyrrole functionalized monomer; 2-butyl-5,12-dihydro-2H-pyrrolo[3',4':2,3][1,4]dioxocino[6,7-b]quinoxaline (BuDQP) where beta-positions of the pyrrole ring are blocked. With the help of this strategy, formation of alpha-beta linkages during polymerization was prevented, resulting in a more regiochemically defined material. Characterization of newly synthesized compounds was performed by FTIR, GC-MS,H-1 NMR,C-13 NMR techniques and elemental analysis. Polymerization and copo...
