Up to date there are few studies reporting the use of selenophene derivatives as electrochromic polymers. This report highlights the synthesis of a selenophene containing multi-ring aromatic polymer which possesses reasonable optical contrasts at both visible and near-IR regions. Electrochemical synthesis of a conducting polymer from a multi-ring aromatic monomer, 2-(2,5-bis(hexyloxy)-4-(selenophen-2-yl)phenyl)selenophene (BSB(OC6H13)(2)), was achieved at a lower potential than its corresponding parent, selenophene. The strong absorption band for the undoped polymer was 474 run and the onset energy for the pi-pi transition (Eg) was 1.9 eV (645 nm).

Kalay, Isil; Yigit, Deniz; GÜLLÜ, Mustafa; DEPCİ, TOLGA; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Hacioglu, Serife O. (Elsevier BV, 2020-09-01)
In this study, two novel electrochromic copolymers (CoP1.3 and CoP1.5) were synthesized via electrochemical methods and characterized. The comonomers used in the synthesis were 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and a carbazole comprising monomer; 9-(2-(4-(Phenyldiazenyl) phenoxy) ethyl)-3,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)-9H-carbazole (M1). Carbazole containing monomer (M1) and EDOT were combined with two different comonomer feed ratios, 1: 3 and 1: 5 respectively in order to investigate the effect of increasing EDOT amo...
THE INFLUENCE OF WATER ON THE ELECTROCHEMICAL POLYMERIZATION OF 3-ACYLPYRROLES
VOIGT, M; ROHDE, N; HALLENSLEBEN, ML; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1993-03-22)
Several poly(3-acylpyrrole)s have been studied by cyclic voltammetry. The influence of some common impurities like water and cyanide present in the solvent-electrolyte system on the redox behavior of the polymer films were emphasized. Due to the presence of such impurities we have also observed changes in the macroscopic properties of the films such as their electrical conductivities. There is enough evidence that the amount of such impurities can be correlated to the degree of the so called overoxidation p...
A CONDUCTING COMPOSITE OF POLYPYRROLE .1. SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION
SELAMPINAR, F; Akbulut, Ural; YALCIN, T; SUZER, S; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1994-02-01)
A conducting composite of polypyrrole was prepared via electrochemical methods. A polyamide was used as the insulating matrix polymer. The characterization of the composite was done by FT-IR, SEM, TGA, DSC and pyrolysis studies. Conductivity and solubility studies together with spectroscopic methods reveal that H bonding exists between the two polymers and a possible grafting to a certain extent.

A new pyrene based soluble polymer, namely poly(3,3-didecyl-6-(1-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepin-6-yl) pyren-6-yl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepine), P5, which is synthesized by both chemical and electrochemical methods, is highlighted. The polymer shows both electrochromic and fluorescent properties (the emission of yellow (545 nm) and yellowish green light (524 nm) in solid state and in THF solution, respectively). It is noteworthy that P5 has a specific optical band gap...
POLY(3-PHENYL AZOPYRROLE)S - A NEW CLASS OF CONDUCTING POLYMERS IN THE POLY(PYRROLE) SERIES
VOIGT, M; HALLENSLEBEN, ML; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1993-03-22)
Several monosubstituted 3-arylazopyrrole derivatives were synthesized for the first time. The oxidation potentials were correlated to the Hammett constants of the substituents. Cyclic voltammetry studies revealed several interesting, features concerning the new compounds. Electrochemical homopolymerizations as well as copolymerization with pyrrole were performed.
