Abstract

A series of peripherally carbazole functionalized dendrimeric starburst monomers were synthesized and characterized. The electrochemical polymerization over Pt and indium tin oxide electrodes of fully π-conjugated dendrimers allows the generation of electro-active polymeric films. Dendrimers were design with and without electroactive central core (triphenylamine) connected to peripherals moieties, which influence the physicochemical characteristics of the electrogenerated polymers. The versatile electropolymerization methodology allows the generation of thin films of hyperbranched macromolecules with good electrical conductivity, reversible electrochemical processes and electrochromic properties.
