Abstract
Poly(phenylene vinylene), PPV and its derivatives have generated much interest due to their high conductivity and electroluminescent propert ies which allow for LED applications. Highly electron-deficient PPV an alogues are desirable as they would allow the use of environmentally s table metals as the electrodes in the LEDs. The title compound (see Fi gure) is just such a material.
