Novel poly(p-phenylenevinylene)s with a phenylazomethine dendron as a metal-collecting site

Org Lett. 2004 Apr 1;6(7):1179-82. doi: 10.1021/ol0497741.

Abstract

Novel poly(p-phenylenevinylene)s (PPVs) with a dendritic phenylazomethine (DPA) as a metal-collecting site were synthesized via the Heck reaction by filling the coordination site of DPA moiety via complexation with rare earth metal ions.
