Abstract

AbstractSeveral planar conjugated polymers and model compounds containing pyrene units are synthesized. The precursor polymers and model compounds are obtained through the Pd(0)‐catalyzed Suzuki reaction, then the planar structure is formed through intramolecular cyclization in the presence of acid. We investigate the regioisomers in intramolecular cyclization reaction by using model compounds, suggesting that the syn‐ and anti‐structures are formed in ladder‐type polymer LP1, and the syn‐structure is more easily formed in LP3. The planar conjugated polymers and model compounds show untypical features of ladder‐type polymers, they display broad absorption and blue or blue‐green emission in solution, and interchain π‐π stacking in film still occurs. Moreover, the new polymers and model compounds are characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, gel‐permeation chromatography (GPC) and cyclic voltammetry (CV).
