The award of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2000 to Professors Alan Heeger, Alan
MacDiarmid, and Hideki Shirakawa for their discovery that “doped” polyacetylene can …

Olefin metathesis represents a comparably young area of chemistry. Originally strongly
related to Ziegler-Natta chemistry, its basic principles started to be elucidated as late as in …

Electroluminescent polymers are reviewed in terms of synthesis and relationships between
structure and light emission properties. The main concepts, problems and ideas related to …

Improved syntheses and polymerisations are reported of monomers bearing electron
transporting substituents based on 2, 5-diphenyloxadiazole and 2, 3-diphenylquinoxaline …

Recent studies on selective permeation of specific cations through a cation-exchange
membrane in electrodialysis, modification of the membrane and electrodialysis method, are …

Polymer light emitting diodes have a good chance to become the main display system in the
near future since diodes have many advantages concerning preparation and operation over …

The success of metathesis chemistry techniques has sparked a tremendous interest in
polymer and material chemistry. This contribution provides an overview of the state of the art …

A series of poly (norbornenes) with pendant triarylamine (TPA) groups has been
synthesized by ring-opening metathesis polymerization and investigated as hole transport …

We report a new route for the design of efficient soluble electroluminescent PPV-based
copolymers bearing electron-deficient oxadiazole (OXD) moieties on side chains. The …

The previously reported ruthenium carbenes (PCy3) 2Cl2Ru CHR (R= CHCPh2 (1a), Ph
(1b)) react with the bridged-chloride dimers [(p-cymene) RuCl2] 2,[(p-cymene) OsCl2] 2, and …
