Polymerization of acetylenic derivatives. XXVII. Synthesis and properties of isomeric poly-N-ethynylcarbazole

TL;DR: In this paper, a poly-N-ethynylcarbazole (PEC) was prepared thermally, by using Ziegler-Natta catalysts, and also by using TiCl4 and phosphine complexes for initiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increasing 3D Supramolecular Order by Decreasing Molecular Order. A Comparative Study of Helical Assemblies of Dendronized Nonchlorinated and Tetrachlorinated Perylene Bisimides

TL;DR: These Cl4PBI compounds provide a new route to stable crystalline assemblies via thermodynamic control at lower temperatures than previously obtained with PBI, thus generating 3D order in an accessible range of temperature of interest for structural analysis and for technological applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of poly(vinyl ether)s with perfluoroalkyl pendant groups

TL;DR: In this paper, a 2-Perfluoro(alkyl)ethyl vinyl ethers, F(CF2)nCH2CH2OCHCHCH2, (n = 6 or 8), were synthesized and polymerized by means of cationic initiators (HI/ZnI2 and CF3SO3H/(CH3)2S).
