Title: Synthesis and photoluminescent properties of polymer containing perylene and fluorene units
Abstract: A new luminescent polymer, F-PTCD, with N,N′-bis-(propenylaniline)-3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic diimide-emitting segments (PTCD) and 9,9-diphenylfluorene (DIPT) was synthesized by Heck reaction. The structures were characterized by MS, EA, 1H NMR, IR and the photoluminescent (PL) properties were investigated by UV/vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectra. The fluorescence quantum yield was 0.453 in acetone. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry showed that the polymer is thermal stable up to 569 °C with glass-transition temperature higher than 125 °C. They are yellow–red emitting materials with the band gap of 2.33 eV estimated from the onset absorption. In addition, the emission can be quenched by both electron donor (N,N-dimethylaniline) and electron acceptor (Fullerene), where the processes followed the Stern-Volmer equation. Furthermore, the interaction between F-PTCD and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was also studied by fluorescent quenching.
