What is it about?
In this work, monomeric 3-([7]helicen-9-yl)thiophene was synthesized and used for the preparation of a polymeric film by electrosynthesis. The polymer prepared was characterized using Fe(CN)63−/4− and Ru(NH3)63+/2+ redox probes, scanning electron microscopy and vibrational spectroscopy. The electropolymerization approach presented here provides a new option for the immobilization of helicenes onto solid supports.
