“…One creative approach uses boronic acid end groups to form immobilized networks of oligofluorenes [82], in contrast to the conventional functionalizations of oligofluorenes with convenient polymerizable groups to form insoluble networks [55]. Hydrophilic, or even ionic, side chains to the 9-position of fluorene have been used to realize selfcondensed nanoparticles of fluorene (with compound 30) [83] and to realize sensing of oligonucleotides [84].…”

“…Strohriegl et al have also developed such systems from their broad experience in crosslinkable liquid crystals [55]. Another approach to a crosslinked fluorene oligomer network is to dehydrate terminal boronic acids, with the added advantage of being reversibly recovered [82]. In addition to crosslinking, attaching fluorene oligomers in a rigid manner to a tetrahedral core has also been shown to result in formation of stable glassy phases [85].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
