Synthesis and properties of liquid crystalline polythiophene and polythienylenevinylene derivatives

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/10587250108025312

Liquid crystalline polythiophene (LC-PTs) and polythienylenevinylene (LC-PTVs) derivatives with various length of methylene spacer in the LC substituents were synthesized. LC-PTs were prepared through dehalogenative polycondensation using Ni(0) complex, a
