Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 25A Neutral State Yellow To Navy Polymer Electrochrome With Pyrene Scaffold(Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Icli-Ozkut, Merve; Cihaner, Atilla; Oztas, Zahide; Algi, Fatih; Cihaner, Atilla; Cihaner, Atilla; Içi-Özkut, Merve; Chemical Engineering; Chemical EngineeringA new pyrene based soluble polymer, namely poly(3,3-didecyl-6-(1-(3,3-didecyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepin-6-yl) pyren-6-yl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-thieno[3,4-b][1,4] dioxepine), P5, which is synthesized by both chemical and electrochemical methods, is highlighted. The polymer shows both electrochromic and fluorescent properties (the emission of yellow (545 nm) and yellowish green light (524 nm) in solid state and in THF solution, respectively). It is noteworthy that P5 has a specific optical band gap (2.2 eV) to reflect the yellow color in the neutral state. Furthermore, the optical and electrochemical features of the polymer were investigated. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V.

Chemically obtained soluble polydithienylpyrrole (c-PSNS-P) bearing pyrene appendages is a homogeneous and uniform polymer with a number averaged molecular weight of 15,200 g/mol. The polymer exhibits both multi-electrochromic and fluorescent properties. Upon oxidation, the color of electrochemically obtained polymer (e-PSNS-P) changes from yellowish orange to greenish yellow and to green/blue and finally to blue. In addition, the polymer induces yellowish orange (564 nm) and bright orange emission (613 nm) in solution and solid states, respectively. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
