A Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-Conjugated Microporous Polymer Network

Conjugated microporous polymer networks have been prepared from the strong electron donor tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and 1,3,5‐triethynylbenzene (TEB) by using the Sonogashira–Hagihara cross‐coupling reaction. Optimization of reaction conditions yields polymers with surface areas of up to 434 m2 g−1....

Description
Summary:Conjugated microporous polymer networks have been prepared from the strong electron donor tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and 1,3,5‐triethynylbenzene (TEB) by using the Sonogashira–Hagihara cross‐coupling reaction. Optimization of reaction conditions yields polymers with surface areas of up to 434 m2 g−1. The strong electron‐donating properties of the network can be proven by iodine exposure. Structural and electronic changes due to formation of the charge‐transfer salt from TTFs in the porous network and iodine within the pores are investigated. Conjugated microporous polymer networks with the strong electron donor tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) in the backbone are presented. The networks exhibit high surface areas of up to 434 m2g−1 and are able to form charge‐transfer complexes with electron acceptors entering the pores (see figure).
