Abstract

During the past decades several synthetic routes toward the low band gap polymer poly (2, 5-thienylene vinylene)(PTV) and derivatives have been studied. This study describes an extensive NMR characterization of 13C-labeled 3-octyl-PTV and its precursor polymer prepared via the dithiocarbamate route which is, since stable monomers are available, a promising route toward PTV derivatives. By introducing 13C-labeled vinylene carbons, we ...
