文摘The general strategy to construct D-A type conjugated polymers is alternating copolymerization of electron-donating(D)monomer and electron-accepting(A)monomer.In this article,we report a new strategy to develop D-A type conjugated polymers,i.e.first fuse the D and A units into a polycyclic structure to produce a building block and then polymerize the building block with another unit.We develop a new building block with ladder structure based on B←N unit,B←N bridged dipyridylbenzene(BNDPB).In the skeleton of BNDPB,one diamine-substituted phenylene ring(D unit)and two B←N-linked pyridyl rings(A unit)are fused together to produce the polycyclic structure.Owning to the presence of intramolecular D-A character,the building block itself exhibits narrow bandgap of 1.74 eV.The conjugated polymers based on BNDPB show unique electronic structures,i.e.localized HOMOs and delocalized LUMOs,which are rarely observed for conventional D-A conjugated polymers.The polymers exhibit smaller bandgap than that of the building block BNDPB and display near-infrared(NIR)light absorption(λabs=ca.700 nm).This study thus provides not only a new strategy to design D-A conjugated polymers but also a new kind of building block with narrow bandgap.
