Abstract

Based on theoretical calculations Polyarenemethylidenes (PAM) 1 have been predicted to be low gap polymers with good semiconducting and photoelectrical properties. The preparation of such a polymer with a well defined structure affords the synthesis of suitable precursors. We have been able to synthesize and characterize a variety of monomers in which the inner quinonoid system is present. Also more extended systems containing one or two additional benzene rings at the quinonoid system have been prepared. The chemical and electrochemical polymerization of the precursors is reported, leading to polymers 1 in a great structural variety.
