In this study, we synthesized phenothiazine monomer containing methoxybenzene and dimethyl aniline groups. We then carried out copolymerization with dioctylfluorene boron compound using Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction. As a result, number average molecular weight (
Mn) of obtained polymers were 2700~2900, weight average molecular weight (
Mw) were 4300~5700, molecular weight distribution were 1.7~2.0. These polymers were soluble in organic solvents such as toluene and chloroform. In the TG measurement, 10% thermogravimetric loss temperature of polymers occurred at 390~400℃ indicating good thermal stability. In the fluorescence spectrum measurements, a THF solution of PMBPOF were observed peaks at 420 nm and 460 nm, showing a blue emission. In addition, the fluorescence spectrum of PMBPOF film revealed a peak at 480 nm, a light blue emission. Similarly, PDMAPOF also showed photoluminescence for both the THF solution and film.
