由于二茂铁独特的夹心结构使含二茂铁基聚合物具有独特的电、磁、催化以及氧化还原性能。全共轭型二茂铁基聚合物由于其特殊的π-π电子结构,使其在电学、光学等方面表现出优越的性质。本文从3个方面(主链型、侧链型和超支化型)介绍了近年来含有二茂铁基团全共轭聚合物的合成及其性能方面的研究进展,讨论了聚合物的结构对溶解性和氧化还原性等方面的影响,并探讨了这一领域存在的问题及可能的发展方向。
This review focuses on the synthesis and properties of the special classe of full-conjugated ferrocenyl polymers with excellent properties, such as electrochemistry, redox, magnetism, catalysis, thermal-stability and so on. Due to their specialties of rr-rr electron structure, the full-conjugated ferrocenyl polymers have extensive applications in optical, electronic and magnetic fields. The three types of polymers are described : full-conjugated main-chain ferrocenyl polymer, full-conjugated side-chain ferrocenyl polymer and full-conjugated hyperbranched ferrocenyl polymer. The influences of the polymer structures on solubility and redox behavior are discussed. Problems and possible prospects are also discussed.
