Abstract
Organic electronics and photonics is a research field that has grown rapidly over the past twenty years, with certain applications such as organic light emitting diodes and electro-optic polymer modulators achieving commercial applications. Central to the demonstrated success and continuing improvements is the synthesis of new materials in small molecule and polymer forms. These new syntheses generally require a subset of specialized reactions that are common to preparing all sorts of π-conjugated materials. This book provides general coverage of these specialized synthetic methodologies with a focus on providing ample practical literature applications of the chemistry in a straightforward and efficient manner.
