Synthesis of Film-Forming Electron-Accepting Polymers.
Abstract
Certain organic charge-transfer salts behave as organic or molecular metals and show conductivity. But these salts have weak interactions between the layers of donors and acceptors which make them fragile and difficult to fabricate. The objective of this research was to incorporate electron-poor sites in a polymer chain. After polymerization, these sites can be complexed with appropriate electron-donating compounds, and lead to charge-transfer complex salts that are incorporated in a strong matrix. However, the intermediate to the electron-poor polymers proved to be too difficult to synthesize. (Author)
