Abstract
AbstractMonomeric fluoroalkoxyalkyl(phenyl)dichlorosilanes were synthesized with quantitative yields by hydrosilylation of allyl ethers of fluoroalcohols with phenyldichlorosilane with Pt(Ph3Sb)2Cl2 complex as a catalyst. Starting from these monomers, corresponding polysilanes with weight‐average molecular weights of 2–3 × 104 were obtained by the Wurtz reaction. Increasing the CF2 groups containing two to six monomer units caused the char yields to increase from 3 to 48% at 800 °C in air. The emission characteristics of these polysilanes in a chloroform solution were examined. They had a narrow peak at 344 nm with a small Stokes shift (≈20 nm). © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
