Abstract
AbstractIn this study, electrochemical copolymerization of 6,7-diphenyl-4,9-di(selenophen-2-yl)-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline and 3,3’-didecyl-3,4-propylenedioxythiophene is carried out to obtain a copolymer namely poly(6,7-diphenyl-4,9-di(selenophen-2-yl)-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline-co-3,3’-didecyl-3,4-propylenedioxythiophene). Two distinct copolymers, PC1 and PC2, were produced as a result of the utilization of two different feed ratios. Copolymers were examined electrochemically and spectroelectrochemically after the copolymerization procedure. This study’s major goal is to combine the exceptional characteristics of homopolymers P1 and P2 (P1 has a low band gap but is not soluble, and P2 is soluble and has a larger band gap) into a single copolymeric material.
