Preparation of a new poly(arylacetylene) with a tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) unit in the side chain
Abstract
A new poly(arylacetylene) having a strongly electron donating unit, a tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) unit, in the side chain has been prepared by Rh-catalyzed polymerization, and optical, electrochemical and electric properties of the polymer have been revealed.
