Abstract:
A conjugated polymer comprisinga) from 1 to 100 mol % of at least one recurring unit RU1 of the formula (I) â€”Bâ€”Trâ€”Aâ€”â€ƒâ€ƒ(I) in which Tr is a triptycenylene radical of the formula (II) or of the formula (III) or of the formula (IV) whereinR1 to R16 are identical or different and are H; linear or branched C1-C22-alkyl in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms; linear or branched C1-C22-alkoxy, in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, C6-C20-aryl, C6-C20-aryloxy, COOR, SO3R, CN, halogen or NO2, G, L, and where appropriate G1 and L1 are identical or different and are CR17, N, P or As and R17 is H, C1-C22-alkyl in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, C1-C22-alkoxy, in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, C6-C20-aryl, halogen or CN, A and B are identical or different and are a single bond, a vinylene radical which is optionally substituted by H, linear or branched C1-C22-alkyl in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups is optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, linear or branched C1-C22-alkoxy, in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups is optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, or C6-C20-aryl, C6-C20-aryloxy, C3-C20-heteroaryl, COOR, SO3R, CN, halogen, NO2, amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, an ethynylene radical, an arylene radical of the formula V where R18 to R21 are identical or different and are as defined above for R1 to R16, a heteroarylene radical of the formula (VI) X and Y are identical or different and are N or CR22, and Z is O, S, NR23, CR24R25, CR26=CR27 or CR28=Nâ€”, in which R22 to R28 are or different and are as defined above for R1 to R 16, or a spirobifluorenylene radical of the formula (VII) where R29 to R32 are identical or different and are as defined above for R1 to R16, and b) from 0 to 99 mol % of at least one recurring unit RU2 of the formula (VIII) where R33 to R36 are identical or different and are as defined above for R1 to R16, or of the formula (IX) where X, Y and Z are as defined above, and D is a single bond, a vinylene radical which is optionally substituted by H, linear or branched C1-C22-alkyl in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, linear or branched C1-C22-alkoxy, in which one or more non-adjacent CH2 groups are optionally replaced by â€”Oâ€”, â€”Sâ€”, â€”COâ€”, â€”COOâ€”, â€”Oâ€”COâ€”, an amino or amide group and in which one or more H atoms are optionally replaced by F atoms, C6-C20-aryl C6-C20-aryloxy, C3-C20-heteroaryl, COOR, SO3R, CN, halogen, NO2, amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, or an ethynylene radical.
