Intramolecular Charge Transfer of Conjugated Liquid Crystal Ferrocene Macromolecules - Synthesis and Characterization

Abstract

The design, synthesis and characterization of a new series of conjugated macromolecules bearing ferrocene as a highly efficient electron donor material coupled to 2,5-di(alcoxy) benzene ethynylene(s) as a pi-conjugated connector and benzoate or phenyl carboxylic acid as termini and electron attractor groups to create a push-pull effect with efficient charge transfer, D-pi-A, are reported. The rigid, rod-like phenyleneethynylene chain bears flexible dodecanoxy group chains to impart liquid crystal properties.
