Many other polymers with similarly conjugated double bonds have been found to conduct when doped. m The promise offered by these materials is of a class of conductors or semiconductors that would carry the benefits associated with polymers: cheapness, toughness and easy processing to fibres, films and coatings on a large scale.

  • 1 Synthesis and Functionality of Substituted Polyacetylenes Jianzhao Liu, Jacky W
    1 1 Synthesis and Functionality of Substituted Polyacetylenes Jianzhao Liu, Jacky W. Y. Lam, and Ben Zhong Tang 1.1 Introduction Polyacetylene (PA) is the archetypal conjugated polymer. The seminal discovery of the metallic conductivity of its doped form has triggered a huge surge of interest in conductive polymers and has spawned an exciting area of research on synthetic metals.1) As a result of rapid advances in the area, we are now on the threshold of a ‘‘plastic-electronics era’’ that previously could only be imagined in science fiction. Structurally, PA is a linear polyene chain [−(HC=CH)n−]. The existence of two hydrogen atoms in its repeat unit offers ample opportunity to decorate the backbone with pendants: replacement of hydrogen in each repeat unit by one or two substituents yields mono- (1) and disubstituted PAs (2), respectively (Scheme 1.1). The pendant and backbone can interact with each other: for example, the former perturbs the electronic conjugation of the latter, while the latter in- fluences the molecular alignment of the former. Proper structural design may tune the backbone–pendant interplay into harmony and synergy, generating new substituted PAs with novel functionalities. While PA is electrically conductive, introduction of such pendant as mesogen, chromophore, photosensitive double bond, or naturally occurring building block may endow it with such new func- tional properties as electro-optic activity, photonic responsiveness, and biologic compatibility. Considerable efforts have been devoted to the synthesis of the substituted PAs and study of their properties [1–9]. Attachment of polar groups to the polyene backbone enables the integration of functional pendants into the PA chain through various functional-group transformations, which was, however, a difficult task at the early stage of PA chemistry.

  • Synthetic and Mechanistic Studies of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) and Some Other Chlorinated Polymers XIANLONG GE College of William &A
    Synthetic and Mechanistic Studies of Poly(vinyl chloride) and Some Other Chlorinated Polymers XIANLONG GE College of William & Mary, Department of Applied Science, 2003 Field: Polymer Science, Degree: Ph.D. Advisor: William H. Starnes, Jr., Professor of Chemistry Abstract Poly(1,2-dichloroethylene) (PDCE) is an unknown polymer that should be a superb engineering thermoplastic for use in a variety of high-performance applications. This thesis discusses approaches to its synthesis and describes the preparation and some of the properties of a number of new polymers that contain chlorine. Other major topics addressed here are (a) the involvement of an excited cation diradical intermediate in the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and (b) the mechanism of the thermal stabilization of PVC by “plasticizer thiols”. Unlike vinyl chloride, 1,2-dchloroethylene (DCE) undergoes dimerization under free-radical conditions. Chain transfer to DCE by β-Cl elimination was shown to be the major reason for its nonpolymerization. The dimeric radical rearranges by a 1,2-Cl shift, but apparently to only a very minor extent. During the chlorination of alkyl chlorides with molecular chlorine, a bridged intermediate is involved, and for this reason, vicinal chlorides were found to be the major products. The yields of geminal chlorides increased significantly in the presence of solvents that form complexes with chlorine atoms, but such solvents also decreased the reactivity of the chlorination. Thus the chlorination of PVC in the presence of complexing solvents was not a useful method for the synthesis of PDCE Polyacetylene (PA) was prepared by the methods of both Shirakawa and Luttinger.

  • Polyacetylene: Myth and Reality
    materials Review Polyacetylene: Myth and Reality Bruce S. Hudson Department of Chemistry, Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY 13244-4100, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-315-443-5805 Received: 31 December 2017; Accepted: 31 January 2018; Published: 6 February 2018 Abstract: Polyacetylene, the simplest and oldest of potentially conducting polymers, has never been made in a form that permits rigorous determination of its structure. Trans polyacetylene in its fully extended form will have a potential energy surface with two equivalent minima. It has been assumed that this results in bond length alternation. It is, rather, very likely that the zero-point energy is above the Peierls barrier. The experimental studies that purport to show bond alternation are reviewed and shown to be compromised by serious experimental inconsistencies or by the presence, for which there is considerable evidence, of finite chain polyenes. In this view, addition of dopants results in conductivity by facilitation of charge transport between finite polyenes. The double minimum potential that necessarily occurs for polyacetylene, if viewed as the result of elongation of finite 1 1 chains, originates from admixture of the 1 Ag ground electronic state with the 2 Ag excited electronic singlet state. This excitation is diradical (two electron) in character. The polyacetylene limit is an 1 equal admixture of these two Ag states making theory intractable for long chains. A method is outlined for preparation of high molecular weight polyacetylene with fully extended chains that are prevented from reacting with neighboring chains. Keywords: polyacetylene; double-minimum potential; Peierls barrier; zero-point level; cross-linking 1. Introduction/Background History Polyacetylene is selected for review because of its relative simplicity; the small periodic repeat permits polyacetylene to be treated by sophisticated computational methods.

Although the molecular formula of polyacetylene is simple, this molecule exhibits complex behavior andfueling signiÿcant work not only in poly- mer science, but also in quantum physics.
