Endgroup and Sidechain Functionalization of Surface-Initiated ROMP Thin Films: Progress Towards ROMP-Based Molecular Wires

08 March 2018, Version 2
Working Paper
This content is a preprint and has not undergone peer review at the time of posting.

Abstract

A set of experiments in surface-initiated ring-opening metathesis polymerization, including end-functionalization of growing brushes and contact angle/cyclic voltammetry measurements. We report preparation and CV of two different conjugated polymer films, and several endgroup and sidechain functionalization experiments using cross-metathesis and active ester substitution.
