Synthesis of Silicon-Containing Unsaturated Polymers by Hydrosilylation Reactions. Photophysical Studies

Silicon-containing unsaturated polymers have been synthesized using the Pt(acac)2-catalyzed photoactivated hydrosilylation of alkynes. These polymers fluoresce at 360 nm when excited at 270 nm due to the π-conjugated vinylphenyl segment in the polymer chain. The polymers have excellent solubility in...

Summary:Silicon-containing unsaturated polymers have been synthesized using the Pt(acac)2-catalyzed photoactivated hydrosilylation of alkynes. These polymers fluoresce at 360 nm when excited at 270 nm due to the π-conjugated vinylphenyl segment in the polymer chain. The polymers have excellent solubility in several organic solvents.
