Description
Summary:博士 === 大同大學 === 化學工程學系(所) === 99 === This dissertation deals with the synthesis and characterization of two new pyrenylamine-containing monomers, named as N,N-di(4-aminophenyl)-1-aminopyrene and N,N-di(4-carboxyphenyl)-1-aminopyrene, and their derived high performance polymers that include polyamides, polyimides, polyhydrazides, and poly(1,3,4- oxadiazole)s. Optoelectronic properties such as absorption, photoluminescent, electrochemical, and electrochromic properties of these pyrenylamine-based polymers were investigated. First, a series of novel polyamides with diphenylpyrenylamine chromophore in the backbone were prepared from the newly synthesized diamine monomer, N,N-di(4-aminophenyl)-1-aminopyrene, and aromatic or aliphatic dicarboxylic acids via the phophorylation polyamidation technique. These polyamides were readily soluble in many organic solvents and could be solution-cast into tough and amorphous films. They had useful levels of thermal stability with glass-transition temperatures in the range of 246-326 oC and 10 % weight loss temperatures in excess of 500 oC. The dilute NMP solutions of these polyamides exhibited fluorescence maxima around 522-544 nm with quantum yields up to 30.2%. These polyamides also showed remarkable fluorescence solvatochromism in various solvents. The polymer films showed reversible electrochemical oxidation and reduction accompanied by strong color changes from yellow neutral state to purple oxidized state and to orange reduced state. The anodically electrochromic films had high coloration efficiency (up to 172 cm2/C at 834 nm) and good redox stability, which still retained a high electroactivity after long-term redox cycles. Second, a new family of polyimides based on N,N-di(4-aminophenyl)-1- aminopyrene and aromatic or alicyclic tetracarboxylic dianhydrides were synthesized. These polyimides exhibited good solubility in many polar organic solvents and could afford robust films via solution casting. The polyimides derived from aromatic dianhydrides exhibited high thermal stability and high glass transition temperatures (333-364 oC). Cyclic voltammetry studies of the polymer films showed that these polyimides are both p and n dopable and have multicolored electrochromic states. For the polyimides derived from alicyclic dianhydrides, they revealed a strong blue-light emission with high fluorescence quantum yields (ΦFL > 45%) and a marked solvatochromic behavior. Thirdly, another series of novel polyamides with diphenylpyrenylamine segments in the backbone were prepared from the newly synthesized dicarboxylic acid monomer, N,N-di(4-carboxyphenyl)-1-aminopyrene, and various aromatic diamines via the phophorylation polyamidation technique. These polyamides were readily soluble in many organic solvents and could be solution-cast into tough and amorphous films. They had useful levels of thermal stability with glass-transition temperatures in the range of 276-342 oC and 10 % weight loss temperatures in excess of 500 oC. The dilute NMP solutions of these polyamides exhibited fluorescence maxima around 455-540 nm with quantum yields up to 56.9%. These polyamides also showed remarkable fluorescence solvatochromism in various solvents. The polymer films showed reversible electrochemical oxidation and reduction accompanied by strong color changes from colorless neutral state to purple oxidized state and to yellow reduced state. The polyamide bearing diphenylpyrenylamino unit in both diacid and diamine components exhibited both p- and n-doping electrochemical processes, and showed a multicolored electrochromic behavior with color change from pale yellow neutral state to greenish gray then purplish gray fully oxidized state and to dark yellow semi-reduced state then reddish orange fully reduced state. Finally, two new polyhydrazides bearing redox-active diphenylpyrenylamine unit were prepared from the phosphorylation polycondensation reaction of N,N-di(4-carboxyphenyl)- 1-aminopyrene with terephthalic dihydrazide and isophthalic dihydrazide, respectively. These two polyhydrazide prepolymers could be further thermally cyclodehydrated into the corresponding poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s in the solid state. The resulting poly(1,3,4-oxdiazole)s had high glass-transition temperatures and high thermal stability. The dilute solutions of all the hydrazide and oxadiazole polymers showed a medium to strong fluorescence in the blue to yellow region. Additionally, cyclic voltammetry studies of the oxadiazole polymers also showed reduction processes accompanied by strong color changes from pale yellow to orange, orange-red or deep blue due to the formation of radical anions of the oxadiazole and pyrene units.
