Conjugated Polymer Brushes (Poly(3-hexylthiophene) brushes): new electro- and photo-active molecular architectures
… we developed a new method to grow P3ATs via Kumada Catalyst Transfer Polymerization (KCTP) of 2-bromo-5-chloromagnesio-3-alkylthiophene. Exposure of the initiator layers to monomer solutions leads to selective chain-growth polycondensation of the monomers from the surface, resulting into P3AT …

Thin Films of Semiconducting Polymers and Block Copolymers by Surface-initiated Polymerization
… polymer thin films by surface-initiated polymerization of small-molecule monomers. This dissertation mainly focuses on development of an efficient method to prepare semiconducting polymer thin films utilizing surface-initiated Kumada catalyst transfer polymerization (SI-KCTP). In chapter …

Chain-Growth Polymerization of 3-Hexylthiophene Towards Well-Defined Semiconductor Block Copolymers
… is the control of the P3HT synthesis using Kumada catalyst transfer polymerization (KCTP). Kinetic studies of the active monomer formation via Grignard metathesis revealed that this reaction is rather slow, however, its completion is essential for controlled end groups. It was shown that …
