Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers broad aspects of the chemistry of π-stacked polymers and low-molecular-weight molecules, from synthesis through theory. It is intended for graduate students and researchers in academia and industry and consists of chapters written by renowned scientists who have made significant contributions to this field in the past decade. π-Stacked polymers and low-molecular-weight molecules are expected to replace main-chain conjugated polymers such as polyacetylenes and polythiophenes as organic conducting and energy-transferring substances that are important as materials for photo-electronic applications. π-Stacked polymers and molecules have significant advantages over main-chain conjugated polymers, i.e., high solubility in solvents, large freedom in molecular design, and colorless nature.

Download or read book Synthesis and Properties of pi stacked Phenylene Ethynylene Oligomers with a 1 8 substituted Naphthalene Bridging Scaffold written by Bradley Edward Carson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of molecular electronics includes the study of conjugated oligomers and polymers that have significant potential for use in devices such as light emitting diodes (LEDS), field effect transistors (FETS), and photovoltaic solar cells. These materials may replace inorganic semiconductors in these devices, Achieving better device performance through lowering the band-gap and achieving higher field effect mobilities will benefit from a greater fundamental understanding of charge transfer through the aromatic subunits. [Pi]-stacking of segments of conjugated polymers has been identified as a key feature that influences the charge transfer through semiconducting organic materials. Optimizing the molecular architecture of conjugated polymers has the potential to provide materials with better charge mobility. While devices might benefit from materials that take advantage of [pi]-stacking, access to [pi]-stacked structures presents a synthetic challenge. 1,8-Disubstituted naphthalenes may serve as simple covalent bridging scaffolds which might hold conjugated oligomers in a [pi]-stacked arrangement. The research described in this thesis focuses on the synthesis of well-defined phenylene ethynylene oligomers coupled to naphthalene to serve as experimental models of closely [pi]-stacked aromatic units in conjugated polymers. The [pi]-stacked molecules reported in this dissertation are characterized by NMR, IR, and mass spectrometry. The effects of [pi]-stacking on the structure and behavior of conjugated oligomers are determined by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy, and electrochemistry.

This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to overview the role of non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen and halogen bonding, π-π, π-anion and electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic effects and van der Waals forces in the synthesis of organic and inorganic compounds, as well as in design of new crystals and function materials. The proposed book should allow to combine, in a systematic way, recent advances on the application of non-covalent interactions in synthesis and design of new compounds and functional materials with significance in Inorganic, Organic, Coordination, Organometallic, Pharmaceutical, Biological and Material Chemistries. Therefore, it should present a multi- and interdisciplinary character assuring a rather broad scope. We believe it will be of interest to a wide range of academic and research staff concerning the synthesis of new compounds, catalysis and materials. Each chapter will be written by authors who are well known experts in their respective fields.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the Rolduc Polymer Meetings is to stimulate interdisciplinary discussions between academic and industrial polymer scientists and engineers. Experts are invited to review selected topics and to initiate discussions relating to future trends and developments. The general theme of these meetings is 'Integration of Fundamental Polymer Science and Technology'. In order to serve this goal, all participants are accommodated in Rolduc Abbey, a well-preserved medieval monument in Limburg (The Netherlands) to provide an optimum atmosphere for the exchange of ideas. About 350 participants took part in the 4th Rolduc Polymer Meeting, which was held from 23 to 27 April 1989. This volume contains invited and selected contributed papers on topics such as solution properties, chemistry, emulsion polymerization, liquid crystalline polymers, structure/ morphology and blends/composites. We are fully aware of the fact that the reader will not find an integrated presentation of lectures in this volume. Unfortunately, it is impossible to put down in writing the atmosphere of this and previous meetings. However, we hope that the reader will be stimulated to present his own views in forthcoming meetings after reading these proceedings. We wish to thank all contributors to this volume. P.l.L.

Download or read book Metallo Supramolecular Polymers written by Masayoshi Higuchi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the synthesis, electrochemical and photochemical properties, and device applications of metallo-supramolecular polymers, new kinds of polymers synthesized by the complexation of metal ions and organic ditopic ligands. Their electrochemical and photochemical properties are also interesting and much different from conventional organic polymers. The properties come from the electronic intra-chain interaction between the metal ions and the ligands in the polymer chain. In this book, for example, the electrochromism that the Fe(II)-based metallo-supramolecular polymer exhibits is described: the blue color of the polymer film disappears by the electrochemical oxidation of Fe(II) ions to Fe(III) and the colorless film becomes blue again by the electrochemical reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II). The electrochromism is explained by the disappearance/appearance of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer absorption. The electrochromic properties are applicable to display devices such as electronic paper and smart windows.
