Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) prepared via electrochemical polymerization of EDOT, 2,2′‐Bis(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (BiEDOT), and their TMS derivatives

Abstract: The low potential, redox‐active, highly stable conducting polymer PEDOT (poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)) has received much attention recently because of these properties, which are likely to lead to many applications. Here the synthesis of EDOT‐TMS2 is reported (where TMS stands for trimethylsilyl and Bi indicates bis), together with the investigation of the electrochemical polymerization of these monomers using voltammetry and the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance. The optical switching rates of t… Show more

“…PEDOT is presently used for charge dissipation coating [20] and in electrochromic devices because of its significantly transparent oxidized state and opaque, deep blue, reduced state [21]. Furthermore, PEDOT also shows a high conductivity (200 S·cm -1 ) [22]. Generally, indium tin oxide (ITO) has been employed as the substrate in electrochromic devices [20,21].…”

“…In a first step two commercially available ethyldioxythiophnes (EDOT, 50) were coupled following a literature procedure. [243] EDOT was lithiated with n-butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran and insitu coupled in an Ullmann coupling with copper(II) chloride. The crude was purified by column chromatography with silica gel to afford the desired BiEDOT 51 as white crystals in 75% yield.…”

“…To date, the only EDOT oligomers that have been isolated and reported in the literature are 2,2Ј:5Ј,2Љ-tris-EDOT, 7 and 2,2Ј-bis-EDOT. 8 Indeed, as compared to ␤,␤Ј-unsubstituted oligothiophenes, EDOT oligomers are more electron rich, due to the addition of electron donating ethylenedioxy groups and therefore have a lower oxidation potential. The substitution also causes the optical absorption spectrum to be red-shifted, which is promising for organic solar cell applications, for which the collection of the low-energy part of the solar spectrum is a major issue.…”
