- Thieno[3,4-b]thiophene ebenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-based polymers bearing optically pure 2-ethylhexyl pendants: Synthesis and application in polymer solar cells
-
Optically active narrow-bandgap polymers ((R,R)- and (S,S)-PTB5) consisting of alternating n-octyl thieno [3,4-b]thiophene-2-carboxylate and benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene units bearing optically pure (R)- and (S)-2-ethylhexyl pendants, respectively, were synthesized for the first time. (R,R)- and (S,S)-PTB5 films showed apparent circular dichroism in their absorption regions of the polymer backbone due to the formation of a chirally ordered superstructure induced by the chirality of the branched alkyl pendants. Inverted-type bulk heterojunction polymer solar cells (PSCs) were fabricated using (R,R)- or (S,S )-PTB5 as electron donors and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester as an electron acceptor. The photovoltaic properties of the PSCs were compared with those of the corresponding PSC containing optically inactive PTB5 bearing racemic 2-ethylhexyl pendants.

- Synthesis, photophysical and electrochemical characterization of phthalocyanine-based poly(p-phenylenevinylene) oligomers
-
The synthesis of two poly(p-phenylenevinylene) oligomers (oPPV) laterally substituted by phthalocyanines (Pc) is described. The preparation of Pc-based oligomers 1 and 2 was accomplished by means of Knoevenagel and Wadsworth-Horner-Emmons reactions, respe

- Sulfonate derivatized perfumes
-
The present invention relates to novel sulfonates based upon alcohol perfumes. The sulfonates have the general formulas of (I) and (II): STR1 where R and Z are independently selected from the group consisting of nonionic or anionic, substituted or unsubstituted C1 -C30 straight, branched or cyclic alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylaryl or aryl group; Y is a radical that, upon hydrolysis of the sulfonate, forms an alcohol with a boiling point at 760 mm Hg of less than about 300° C. that is a perfume; and excluding geranyl and neryl methanesulfonates. Preferably these sulfonate compounds are incorporated into laundry and cleaning compositions.

- Sulfonate perfumes for dryer-activated fabric conditioning and antistatic compositions
-
The present invention relates to dryer-activated fabric softening compositions comprising: (A) fabric softening compounds; and (B) sulfonate and/or sulfonates having the formula (I), (Ia), or combinations thereof. STR1 wherein R and Z are independently selected from the group consisting of nonionic or anionic, substituted or unsubstituted C1 -C30 straight, branched or cyclic alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylaryl or aryl group; Y is a radical that, upon hydrolysis of said sulfonate, forms an alcohol with a boiling point at 760 mm Hg of less than about 300° C. which are perfumes.
