The synthesis of novel conducting polymers and oligomers for use in electrical devices, drug delivery systems, and energy dynamics studies

Described herein are three projects centered on the synthesis of conducting polymer derivatives for various applications. The first is the novel synthesis of 9,9-dioctylfluorene-co-benzothiadiazole [F8BT] oligomers through solid phase synthesis for the study of the thermodynamics and kinetics of electron transfer in the polymer. The second endeavor involves the synthesis of a series of 4”,3’’’-dialkyl-2,2’:5’,2”:5”,2’’’:5’’’,2’’’’:5’’’’,2’’’’’-sexithiophenes for the studies on crystal packing and surface deposition of organic p-type semiconducting materials. Lastly is described the development of a conducting metallopolymer based on the ligand 2,6-Bis(4-(2,2’-bithiophen-5-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine for use in a drug delivery system. / text
