“…In 2019, Christoph Horn and co-workers reported the synthesis of novel side-chain semi uorinated thiophene monomer 69, synthesized by reacting 3-thiophene ethanol with 4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,9-tridecauorononan-1-ol (Scheme 22). 217 Kumada catalyst transfer polycondensation protocol was employed to synthesize regioregular side-chain semiuorinated thiophene polymer P3sfT 75 with narrow polydispersity index of 1.11, number average molecular weight (M n ) of 25 900 g mol À1 and high regioregularity (>98%). P3sfT exhibited high self assembly and crystallinity in the solid state.…”
