Halogen bonding (XB) is commonly defined as a non-covalent bond where halogen atoms
(X= Cl, Br, I) function as electron acceptors. As an analogue of hydrogen bonding, halogen …

The photovoltaic technology represents a major renewable energy source to harnes the
solar power. Over the last two decades, the development of solution-processed bulk …

Grignard metathesis ( GRIM ) polymerization for the synthesis of conjugated block copolymers
containing regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) - Polymer Chemistry (RSC Publishing) …

This article features recent advances in the synthesis of conjugated polymers via a
controlled polymerization. These polymerizations typically rely on transition metal catalyzed …

In a first part of this article, the synthesis of AB type block copoly (3-alkylthiophene) s initiated
by Ni (dppp) Cl2, the most commonly used initiator for these polymers, is investigated. For …

Several valuable scientific investigations have been conducted these last few years in
materials design and device engineering for perovskite solar cells (PSCs) to make them …

The mechanisms for Ni (dppp) Cl2-catalyzed chain-growth polymerization of 4-bromo-2, 5-
bis (hexyloxy) phenylmagnesium chloride and 5-bromo-4-hexylthiophen-2-ylmagnesium …

The role of ligand-based steric effects was investigated in the polymerization of 4-bromo-2, 5-
bis (hexyloxy) phenylmagnesium chloride. Three different Ni (LL) Cl2 catalysts were …

Nowadays, numerous experimental and theoretical studies are devoted to the research field
of polythiophenes and other electroconjugated polymers due to the huge potentialities of …

This manuscript reports a universal chain‐growth polymerization protocol for conjugated
polymers. Herein, the Pd‐based catalyst moiety dissociates from the growing active center …
