Poly -p-phenylene vinylene

Poly(arylene vinylenes). The use of the soluble precursor route has been successful in the case of poly(arylene vinylenes), both those containing ben2enoid and heteroaromatic species as the aryl groups. The simplest member of this family is poly(p-phenylene vinylene) [26009-24-5] (PPV). High molecular weight PPV is prepared via a soluble precursor route (99—105). The method involves the synthesis of the bis-sulfonium salt from /)-dichloromethylbenzene, followed by a sodium hydroxide elimination polymerization reaction at 0°C to produce an aqueous solution of a polyelectrolyte precursor polymer (11). This polyelectrolyte is then processed into films, foams, and fibers, and converted to PPV thermally (eq. 8).
