Description
Summary:This tutorial review covers recent contributions in the area of hole-transporting hydrazones, which are widely used in optoelectronic devices. It is addressed to students and researchers interested in the synthesis and properties of organic electroactive materials. The thermal, charge transport and other properties of electroactive hydrazones are compared and the relationships between the molecular structures and properties are emphasized. The first part discusses the low-molar-mass hydrazones and presents examples of their synthetic routes and chemical structures. In the second part, polymeric arylaldehyde hydrazones containing hydrazone moieties as the side substituents and in the main-chain are described.
