Poly (phenylenevinylene) analogs with ring substituted polar side chains and their use in the formation of hydrogen bonding based self-assembled multilayers
Poly (arylenevinylene) homopolymers and copolymers with polar hydroxy and carboxy moieties attached to the aromatic phenyl ring were prepared. The copolymers and the related homopolymers are copoly [5-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2-methoxy-1, 4- phenylenevinylene/1, 4-phenylenevinylene], co (PHydroxyV-PV), and copoly (5- carboxymethoxy-2-methoxy-1, 4-phenylenevinylene/1, 4-phenylenevinylene), co ( ...
