Publication Accès libre Synthesis and properties of conjugated polymers based on ladderized anthanthrene unit(American Chemical Society, 2019-09-05) Aumaitre, Cyril; Lirette, Frédéric; Morin, Jean-François; Johnson, Paul A.; Fecteau, Charles-ÉmilePolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are interesting building blocks for the preparation of conjugated polymers due to their extended π surface and planar conformation. However, their use as comonomer in conjugated polymers often leads to nonplanar main chains as a consequence of high steric hindrance at the linking point. Herein, we report the synthesis of a ladderized anthanthrene unit using an sp3 carbon bridge. Three conjugated copolymers with fluorene, isoindigo, and bithiophene derivatives have been synthesized and characterized to study the effect of such ladderization on the electronic properties. The dihedral angle between the ladderized anthanthrene and adjacent units has been significantly reduced by the formation of the sp3 carbon bridge, thus eliminating the steric hindrance with the proton at the peri position of the anthanthrene unit and red-shifting the absorption spectrum by 25 nm.Publication Accès libre Photochemical synthesis of p-extended ullazine derivatives as new electron donor for efficient conjugated D–A polymers(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-02-12) Aumaitre, Cyril; Morin, Jean-François; Miao, DandanWe report the synthesis of π-extended ullazine derivatives annulated with either electron-poor pyridine or electron-rich thiophene units through a metal-free, photochemical cyclodehydrochlorination (CDHC) reaction. The strongest electron-donor derivative, 7-tetradecylthieno[3′,2′:7,8]indolizino[6,5,4,3-ija]thieno[2,3-c]quinolone, was copolymerized with electron-deficient thienopyrroledione (TPD), isoindigo (IID), and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) derivatives to provide three donor–acceptor conjugated polymers (D–A CPs). Their photophysical, electrochemical and photovoltaic (PV) properties were investigated. The polymers showed broad UV-vis-NIR absorption bands with λmax values of 612 nm, 698 nm, 788 nm in chloroform and exhibited optical bandgap (Eoptg) of 1.58 eV, 1.41 eV, 1.24 eV measured as films. Inverted bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells (BHJ-PSCs) were fabricated using these polymers as host and light-harvesting materials. The device based on P3:PC70BM blends shows the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.23% (Voc = 0.55 V, Jsc = 7.86 mA cm−2, FF = 52%). These promising results demonstrate that π-extended ullazine derivatives can be used as electron-rich building blocks for the construction of D–A CPs for efficient PSCs applications.
