Diketopyrrolopyrrole-based semiconducting polymer bearing thermocleavable side chains

The synthesis of a diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based semiconducting polymer bearing thermocleavable side chains is described. This polymer can be converted into a native semiconductive polymer by thermal annealing at 200 °C. The resulting side chain-free polymer showed a good p-type semiconductor performance in organic thin film transistors. The Royal Society of Chemistry.

Synthesis of two dihydropyrroloindoledione-based copolymers for organic electronics

Two novel dihydropyrroloindoledione (DPID)-based copolymers have been synthesized in a two directional approach and characterized (gel permeation chromatography (GPC), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis), cyclic voltammetry, and computational models). These planar, broad absorption copolymers show promise for use in organic electronics, with deep energy levels and low bandgaps. The two-directional Knoevenagel condensation used demonstrates the versatility of DPID as a useful yet underexploited conjugated unit.

Extraction of metal values

Metal values, especially copper values, are extracted from aqueous solutions of metal salts containing halide or pseudo halide ions by a 1,2,4 triazole substitued in the 1- position by (1) a hydrocarbyl (alkyl) group or (2) a group of the formula --(X)n --(CO--Y)m where X is an optionally substituted methylene, vinylene or phenylene linking group or a linking group of formula --CO--A-- where A is an optionally substituted aromatic ortho linking group; n is 0 or 1; Y is OR2 or R3 where R2 and R3 are hydrocarbyl groups containing from 5 to 36 carbon atoms (preferably branched alkyl groups containing from 9 to 24 carbon atoms); and m is from 1 to 3.
