Non-Conjugated Poly(Diphenylene Phthalide)-New Electroactive Material.

In organic electronics, conjugated conductive polymers are most widely used. The scope of their application is currently very wide. Non-conjugated polymers are used much less in electronics and are usually used as insulation materials or materials for capacitors.

Non-Conjugated Copoly(Arylene Ether Ketone) for the Current-Collecting System of a Solar Cell with Indium Tin Oxide Electrode.

The mechanism of charge carrier transport in the indium tin oxide (ITO)/polymer/Cu structure is studied, where thin films of copoly(arylene ether ketone) with cardo fluorene moieties are used. This copoly(arylene ether ketone) is non-conjugated polymer which has the properties of electronic switching from the insulating to the highly conductive state. The dependence on the polymer film thickness of such parameters as the potential barrier at the ITO/polymer interface, the concentration of charge carriers, and their mobility in the polymer is studied for the first time.

Structure-Property Relationship on the Example of Gas Separation Characteristics of Poly(Arylene Ether Ketone)s and Poly(Diphenylene Phtalide).

Three poly(arylene ether ketone)s (PAEKs) with propylidene (C1, C2) and phtalide (C3) fragments, and one phtalide-containing polyarylene (C4), were synthesized. Their chemical structures were confirmed via H NMR, C NMR and F NMR spectroscopy. The polymers have shown a high glass transition temperature (>155 °C), excellent film-forming properties, and a high free volume for this polymer type.

NMR study of dyadic and triadic splitting in copoly(arylene)phthalides based on diphenyl oxide and diphenyl sulfide.

All C NMR signals of the poly(arylene) polymers, O-1, S-7, OS-4, OOS-3, OOOS-2, SSO-5, and SSSO-6 (where O is a diphenyleneoxiphthalide unit and S is a diphenylenethiophthalide unit) in dyads and triads were assigned unequivocally with two-dimensional NMR techniques (ge-2D [ H- H] COSY, ge-2D [ H- C] HSQC, and ge-2D [ H- C] HMBC), and for each atom, the increments of the shifts are determined. For structurally similar carbon atoms of the phthalide cycle and heteroaromatic fragments of the skeletal chain, additive signal splitting schemes in phthalide centered dyads and in diphenylene oxide and in diphenylene sulfide centered triads are considered, based on taking into account the contributions to their shielding of adjacent and distant substituents. It was shown that the nature of the splitting of the signals of each of the 20 carbon atoms in 3,3-bisphenylphthalide fragments is determined by the type of carbon atom (tertiary or quaternary, even or odd), the type of heteroatoms in adjacent heteroaromatic fragments, their distance from the identified carbon nucleus, and their polyad symmetry.

NMR study of phthalide-type poly(phenylene)s. Symmetry and additivity.

All H and C NMR signals of the four poly(phenylenephthalides): polydiphenylenephthalide (P(DPh)-1), polyterphenylenephthalide (P(TPh)-2) and two sequentially ordered polymers with different ratios of alternating diphenylenephthalide and terphenylenephthalide units (P(DTPh)-3, P(DDTPh)-4) were assigned unequivocally with two-dimensional NMR techniques ( H- H COSY and NOESY; H- C HSQC and HMBC). There are four types of polyphenylene fragments: not symmetrical end, symmetrical inner, symmetrical pre-end and formally symmetric pre-end. The equivalent carbon atoms in these fragments have different chemical shifts.

13C NMR spectroscopy of copoly(arylenephthalide) derivatives with diphenyloxide and terphenyl fragments in the main chain.

(1) H and (13) С NMR spectral assignments have been provided for low-molecular reference monomers, poly(diphenyleneoxidephthalide) and periodic copoly(arylenephthalide) derivatives such as AB, ABB, and ABBB (where A = terphenylenephthalide and B = diphenyleneoxidephthalide) using (1) H-(1) H COSY, (1) H-(13) C HSQC and HMBC NMR techniques. Distinctive (13) C NMR chemical shifts of a main chain have been observed containing fragments of similar structures and lateral phthalate groups being part of various diads.
