Abstract: Abstract Direct arylation polymerization enables “greener” synthesis of a high-performance semicrystalline π-conjugated polymer, poly[(2,5-bis(2-hexyldecyloxy)phenylene)-alt-(5,6-difluoro-4,7-di(thiophene-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole) (PPDT2FBT). The resulting polymers show a hole mobility of 4.7 × 10−3 cm2 V−1 s−1 in bottom-gate/top-contact field effect transistors, and a power conversion efficiency over… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.2c02981
Abstract: Stereocomplexation is a useful strategy for the enhancement of polymer properties by the co-crystallization of polymer strands with opposed chirality. Yet, with the exception of PLA, stereocomplexes of biodegradable polyesters are relatively underexplored and the… read more here.
