New multiple-layered 3D polymers showing aggregation-induced emission and polarization.

ABSTRACT

An exceptional achiral and chiral multilayer 3D polymer has been created and controlled by uniform and distinct aromatic chromophore units that are multiply sandwiched by naphthyl berths. In order to put together this assembly, it was necessary to search for new catalytic Suzuki-Miyaura polycouplings among various catalytic systems, monomers, and catalysts. Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) was able to verify the presence of many framework layers. The resulting achiral and chiral polymers displayed notable optical characteristic.
