Abstract
New poly(arylene-ethynylene)s with silicon-containing ferrocene moiety in the polymer main chain were synthesized via the C-C bond forming reactions of 1,1´-bis(ethynyldimethylsilyl)ferrocene and various aromatic dihalides in high yields. The aromatic dihalides include 1,4-dibromobenzene, 4,4´-dibromobiphenyl, 9,10-dibromoanthracene, 2,5-dibromopyridine, 2,5-dibromothiophene, and 2,6-diiodo-4-nitroaniline. The polymer structures and properties were characterized by such instrumental methods as NMR (1H-, 13C-, and 29Si-), IR, UV-visible spectroscopies and TGA/DSC. The spectral data indicated that the present polymers have the regular alternating structure of 1,1´-bis(ethynyldimethylsilyl)ferrocenylene and arylene units. The resulting polymers were completely soluble in such organic solvents as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, chlorobenzene, and THF. The thermal behaviors of the resulting polymers were examined.
