Advancements in the Synthetics and Applications of π -Conducting Poly (arylene vinylene) Materials: Mini review

Abstract

Lately, organic semiconductor materials have become essential in creating a more pleasant atmosphere for humanity. Thus, it is important to develop unfamiliar, high-performing conjugated materials. A summary of the most recent developments in the synthesis of poly-arylenevinylenes (PAVs), such as poly-phenylenevinylenes (PPVs). Furthermore, there are three main categories for the synthetic methodologies: P-Quinodimethane Intermediates Polymerization by an anionic and free radical mechanism in protic and non-protic solvents, Olefin Metathesis Polymerizations via living ROMP and Acyclic-Diene Metathesis (ADMET), and C-C Coupling Polymerizations by using three different techniques such as Mizoroki-Heck coupling, Suzuki coupling and Stille coupling. Ultimately, this overview offers a few different potential applications for PPVs, exemplified by the electroluminescence properties of PPVs which utilized in light-emitting diodes and organic solar cells.
