Controlled synthesis of a new, soluble, conjugated metallopolymer containing ruthenium chromophoric units
- Wayne State Univ., Detroit, MI (United States)
Conjugated polymers have been of interest because of their electrical conductivity. More recently, metal-derivitized conjugated systems and new polymer systems have been developed that are better able to coordinate metal centers. The rationale is metalated derivatives could combine the rich electro- and photochemical activities of the metal complex with the long-range conjugation properties of the polymer, thus leading to systems capable of performing electro- or photoinduced very-long-range electron transfer. These systems could also have applications as donor-acceptor type conjugated systems, or electro- and photochemical manipulation of the metal centers on the polymer could represent switchable molecular wires responding to external stimuli. The authors report here the synthesis and characterization of a new bipyridine-containing conjugated polymer system, poly[1-(2,2{prime}-bipyridine-4-yl)-1,14-diazabutadiene-4,4{prime}-diyl] (polyazabpy), and its polymetalated ruthenium complex.
