M. Kijima et al., Synthesis and characterization of a novel linear conjugated polymer, poly(2,5-didodecyloxy-1,4-phenyleneoctatetraynylene), CHEM LETT, (6), 1999, pp. 531-532
A novel linear conjugated polymer, poly(2,5-didodecyloxyphenyleneoctatetray
nylene), was synthesized by an oxidative coupling of 2,5-didodecyloxy-1,4-d
ibutadiynylbenzene in presence of a CuCl-TMEDA catalyst under O-2. The poly
mer was stable under air and soluble in organic solvents. The structural an
alyses and the characterizations were carried out by Raman, NMR, and UV-Vis
.
