A series of four acrylic monomers were synthesized based on p-type organic semiconductor motifs found commonly in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). These monomers are readily polymerized by a facile Cu(0) reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) procedure at room temperature, the kinetics of which are described in detail. The title polymers were obtained in high yield with low polydispersities, and display first-order polymerization kinetics up to high monomer conversion (≥93%). The optical, electrochemical and thermal properties for each of these p-type materials are also described. Overall, these methods provide a simple and low-cost route to well-defined materials with promise for applications in organic electronic devices.

基于p型有机半导体的丙烯酸酯的Cu（0）-RDRP †

基于常见于有机发光二极管（OLED），有机薄膜晶体管（OTFT）和有机光伏（OPV）中的p型有机半导体图案，合成了一系列四种丙烯酸单体。这些单体很容易在室温下通过容易进行的Cu（0）可逆失活自由基聚合（RDRP）程序进行聚合，其动力学已作了详细描述。以高收率和低多分散性获得标题聚合物，并显示高达高单体转化率（≥93％）的一级聚合动力学。还描述了每种p型材料的光学，电化学和热学性质。总体而言，这些方法为定义明确的材料提供了一种简单且低成本的途径，有望在有机电子设备中得到应用。
