Article Polysulfur Copolymer as a Support Material for the Preparation of a Novel Multifunctional Photocatalytic Composite Material(Springer, 2025) Kesimal, Busra; Guner, Zuhal Vanli; Cihaner, Atilla; Kaya, MuratOne-step addition of magnetic nanoparticles and titanium dioxide nanoparticles into polysulfur copolymer as cheap and available support was reported for the first time to prepare the magnetically separable heterogeneous catalyst, PolyS-MNP-TiO2. The photocatalytic activities of the PolyS-MNP-TiO2 composite material and its constituents were examined in the methylene blue (MB) degradation, textile-based wastewater simulant, exposed to solar light. Detailed characterization of the catalysts was performed with SEM, TEM, and EDX measurements. The photocatalytic activity of the resulting composite was figured out in the removal of methylene blue dye by using a solar simulator. Significantly, the as-prepared PolyS-MNP-TiO2 exhibits exceptional photocatalytic activity and total degradation of dye molecules was achieved in 60 min. Additionally, the prepared novel photocatalyst showed enhanced stability and reusability due to the magnetic behavior of the composite material and the same portion of catalyst was used in five successive tries without apparent loss in catalytic activity by eliminating long and work-loaded processes like filtration and centrifugation.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 32Effect of Fluorine Substituted Benzothiadiazole on Electro-Optical Properties of Donor-Acceptor Type Monomers and Their Polymers(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2020) Cakal, Deniz; Ercan, Yunus Emre; Onal, Ahmet M.; Cihaner, AtillaA series of trimeric monomers bearing thiophene donor units and fluorinated analogues of benzothiadiazole acceptor units was synthesized via donor-acceptor-donor approach and polymerized electrochemically in order to investigate the effect of fluorine atom on electro-optical properties of both monomers and their corresponding polymers. All monomers exhibited solvatochromic and fluorescent properties. The introduction of fluorine atom into the conjugated backbone increased the oxidation potentials. Upon moving from nonfluorinated to fully fluorinated analogues, the oxidation potential shifts anodically from 1.30 V to 1.7 V. As in the case of monomers, the fluorine atom substitution also resulted in a decrease in the HOMO energy level of the corresponding polymers, leading to an increase in the electrochemical band gap energy (1.71-1.97 eV). This result can be attributed to deviations from planarity and also to decrease in the effective conjugation length. The polymeric film also exhibited electrochromic properties under various external potentials. Switching time and coloration efficiency values decreased with increasing number of fluorine atom substitution.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 19Effect of Furan, Thiophene and Selenophene Donor Groups on Benzoselenadiazole Based Donor-Acceptor Systems(Elsevier Science Sa, 2016) Karabay, Lutfiye Canan; Karabay, Bads; Karakoy, Merve Serife; Cihaner, AtillaA series of the monomers called 4,7-di(furan-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]selenadiazole (OSeO), 4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c]11,2,5]selenadiazole (SSeS) and 4,7-di(selenophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]selenadiazole (SeSeSe) was synthesized via a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) approach. Benzoselenadiazole was used as an acceptor unit and furan, thiophene and selenophene were used as donor units. The effects of chalcogen atoms (0, S, and Se) in furan, thiophene and selenophene were investigated systematically on the properties of the monomers and their corresponding polymers (POSeO, PSSeS and PSeSeSe, respectively), which were polymerized electrochemically via potentiodynamic or potentiostatic methods. The monomers OSeO, SSeS and SeSeSe exhibited low oxidation potentials of 1.15, 1.25 and 1.19 V vs. Ag/AgCl, respectively. Intramolecular charge transfer interaction between donor and acceptor units was demonstrated from the emission spectra of the monomers. Also, the optical studies showed that the ambipolar and electrochromic polymers POSeO, PSSeS and PSeSeSe have low band gaps of 1.57, 1.47 and 1.45 eV, respectively. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

It is noteworthy that 1,2-bis(5-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxepin-6-yl)-2-methylthiophen-3-yl)cyclopent-1-ene can be efficiently switched between open and closed states by light in both solution and in the solid poly(methyl metacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. It is also found that the emission of this novel compound can be switched on and off upon irradiation.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 6Side Chain Effect on the Electrochemical and Optical Properties of Thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione Based Donor-Acceptor Donor Type Monomers and Polymers(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2023) Cakal, Deniz; Arabaci, Elif Demir; Yildirim, Erol; Cihaner, Atilla; Onal, Ahmet M.In organic pi-conjugated materials, side chains play great roles that impact far beyond solubility. In this work, we mainly focused on the synthesis of new donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type conjugated monomers and their corresponding polymers appending thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione (TPD) acceptor with a new side chain, fluorene (Fl), to investigate the side chain effect. In this context, to reveal the precise effect of the side chains on the optical and electrochemical properties of the monomers and polymers synthesized in this work, four series of D-A-D monomers, each containing a TPD core unit with a different side chain, are compared and discussed in relation to each other. Notably, it was discovered that the TPD acceptor unit can be modified with any functional group other than common alkyl chains to impart new functionalities by maintaining their superior optoelectronic properties. New types of side chains can be used to tune the physical characteristics, such as solubility, absorption, emission, and molecular packing. In this work, Fl-appended monomers as a new class of D-A-D type pi-conjugated molecules containing 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT (E)) and 3,4-propylenedioxythiophene (ProDOT (P)) donor units were studied and it was found that 1,3-bis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-5-(9H-fluoren-2-yl)-4H-thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6(5H)-dione (E(Fl)) and 1,3-bis(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxepin-6-yl)-5-(9H-fluoren-2-yl)-4H-thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6(5H)-dione (P(Fl)) exhibited reasonable quantum yields and their corresponding polymers revealed ambipolar character with slightly lower band gap as compared to the previous analogues containing other side chains. Observed experimental results were elucidated by first principle calculations. In this paper, we discussed that using side chain engineering is an effective strategy for improving next-generation organic pi-conjugated materials with the desired properties.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 22Electrochemical and Optical Properties of an Azo Dye Based Conducting Copolymer(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2009) Cihaner, Atilla; Algi, FatihThe electrochemical and optical properties of a novel conducting copolymer called poly(2,5'-dimethyl-[4-(2,5-di-thiophen-2-yl-pyrrol-1-yl)-phenyl]azobenzene-co-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)) (poly(1-co-EDOT)) are reported. Electrochemically synthesized poly(1-co-EDOT) based on the azo dye has a well-defined and reversible redox couple (0.37 V vs. Ag/AgCl) with good cycle stability. The copolymer film exhibits high conductivity (13 S/cm) as well as electrochromic behavior (magenta when neutralized and transmissive sky blue when oxidized). Furthermore, electro-optically active copolymer film has a low band gap of 1.79 eV with a pi-pi* transition at 555 nm.Article Side Chain Effect on the Electrochemical and Optical Properties of Tpd Based Donor Acceptor Donor Type Monomers and Polymers(Molecular Systems Design and Engineering, 2023) Çakal, Deniz; Demir Arabacı, Elif; Yıldırım, Erol; Cihaner, Atilla; Önal, Ahmet M.In organic π-conjugated materials, side chains play great roles that are far beyond solubility. In this work, we mainly focused on the synthesis of new donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type conjugated monomers and their corresponding polymers appending TPD acceptor with a new side chain, fluorene, to investigate the side chain effect. In this context, to reveal the precise effect of the side chains on the optical and electrochemical properties of the monomers and polymers synthesized in this work, four series of D-A-D monomers, each containing a TPD core unit with a different side chain, have been discussed in comparison to each other. Notably, it was discovered that TPD acceptor unit can be modified by any functional group other than common alkyl chains to impart new functionalities by keeping their superior optoelectronic properties. New kind of side chains can be used to tune the physical characteristics such as solubility, absorption, emission and molecular packing. In this paper, fluorene-appended monomers as a new class of D-A-D type π-conjugated molecules were studied and it was found that E(Fl) and P(Fl) exhibited resonable quantum yields and their corresponding polymers revealed ambipolar character with slightly lower band gap as compared to the previous analougs containing other side chains. Observed experimental results were elucidated by first principle calculations. In this paper, we discussed that using side chain engineering is an effective strategy to improve next-generation organic π-conjugated materials with the desired properties.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Electrochemical Polymerization of 4-Allylanisole(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2001) Cihaner, A; Testereci, HN; Önal, AMElectrochemical polymerization of 3-allylanisole (4AA). via constant potential electrolysis, has been investigated in acetonitrile using two different supporting electrolytes. Redox behavior of the monomer was also studied in the same solvent-electrolyte couples at room temperature. Electrochemical polymerization of the monomer yielded insoluble polymer films on the electrode surface, which bears a very low conductivity, together with the low molecular weight polymers in the bulk of the solution. The decrease in the monomer concentration, during the electrochemical polymerization. was monitored by taking the cyclic voltammogram of the electrolysis solution. The effect of temperature on the rate of electrochemical polymerization was: also studied. The polymers were characterized by taking the H-1-NMR and FTIR spectra. Molecular weight of the soluble polymer was determined by vapor pressure osmometry. Thermal analysis of the polymer film and soluble polymer were done by DSC. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

G.; Onal, A. M.; Cihaner, A.In this study, three different benzimidazole (BIm) based acceptor groups bearing cyclohexane, cycloheptane and cyclooctane rings at 2-C position of benzimidazole were synthesized and coupled with ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) donor units via Stille cross-coupling reaction. The resulting donor acceptor-donor (DAD) type monomers were examined in terms of their electrochemical and optical behaviors. All three monomers exhibited dual absorption bands due to their donor-acceptor pattern and exhibited one irreversible oxidation peak at about 0.80 V. The monomers were electrochemically polymerized via both potentiostatic and potentiodynamic methods and electro-optical properties of obtained conjugated polymer films were investigated in monomer free electrolytic solution. It was found that the polymer films exhibited quasi-reversible redox behavior due to the doping/dedoping process of the polymers, which was accompanied by a reversible electrochromic behavior. Electrochromic investigations showed that all three polymer films showed similar multichromic behaviors: green in the neutral state, gray in the oxidized state, and brick-red in the reduced state. Their band gap (Eg) values were elucidated utilizing spectroelectrochemical data and it was found to be around 1.18 eV. Furthermore, one of the polymer film was utilized for the construction of transmissive type electrochromic device (ECD) with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 65Citation - Scopus: 67An Electrochromic and Fluorescent Polymer Based on 1-(1(Elsevier Science Sa, 2008) Cihaner, Atilla; Algi, FatihA novel polymer was synthesized by electrochemical polymerization of 1-(1-naphthyl)-2,5-di-2-thienyl-1H-pyrrole (SNS-1-NAPH). The corresponding polymer (PSNS-1-NAPH) was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, FT-IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The polymer has a very well-defined and reversible redox process in both organic and aqueous solutions. Furthermore, it shows stable electrochromic behavior; yellow in the neutral state, green in the intermediate state and violet in the oxidized state. PSNS-1-NAPH is soluble in common solvents. Although SNS-1-NAPH is almost nonfluorescent, its polymer is a yellow and/or green light emitter. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
