Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) Carbazole Ligand

Used in the synthesis of macromolecules as photoluminescent and supercapacitor materials


Overview | Product Information | MSDS | Related Products


9-(4-Ethynylphenyl)carbazole (CAS number 262861-81-4) is a carbazole derivative functionalized with an ethynylphenyl group. Owing to the ethynyl group, 9-(4-ethynylphenyl)carbazole can undergo the Sonogashira coupling reaction and click reaction to form semiconducting macromolecules. Additionally, 9-(4-ethynylphenyl)carbazole can form oligomers through oxidation reactions with FeCl3.

9-(4-Ethynylphenyl)carbazole is employed in the synthesis of carbazole-functionalised corannulene-viologen ambipolar polymers that are used in electrochromic supercapacitors. The resulting polymer exhibits high optical contrast and specific capacitance of 394 F/g. 9-(4-Ethynylphenyl)carbazole is attached to naphthalene and perylene diimides, forming D-π-A-π-D n-type semicondutors with electron mobility of up to 0.3 cm2/V·s.
