Poly(arylene ether)s with Low Refractive Indices: Poly(biphenylene oxide)s with Trifluoromethyl Pendant Groups via a Meta-Activated Nitro Displacement Reaction

Abstract: High-molecular-weight poly(biphenylene oxide)s (PBPO) were prepared from AB-type monomers, 4′(3′)hydroxy-4-nitro-2,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl, through a meta-activated nitro displacement reaction. The displacement of nitro leaving group activated by the two trifluoromethyl groups at the meta-position produced high-molecular-weight polymers, which implies that nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of the nitro leaving group proceeded very effectively with two activating groups at the meta-position.

“…Kim et al [49] prepared PBPOs containing two -CF 3 groups positioned symmetrically on one phenyl ring from 4 ′ -hydroxy-4-nitro-2,6-bis-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl and its 3 ′ -isomer through a meta-activated nucleophilic nitro displacement reaction. The effect of the two -CF 3 groups on the reactivity of the meta-activated S N Ar reaction was studied.…”

“…Accordingly, many fluorinated PAE have been investigated and developed, of which the PAE containing perfluorophenyl units, −CF 3 groups, and perfluorocyclobutane moieties are particularly gathering attention. 12 −14 These fluorinated PAE exhibit high glass transition temperature (T g ) and excellent optical properties and are expected to be used in areas such as optical communications, ultralarge scale integration circuits, and flat-panel display. 15−19 However, most of the PAE are unsuitable for a solution process because they show low solubility in the common organic solvents.…”

“…Another approach to reduce the dielectric constant of aromatic polymers can be realized by incorporation of fluorine atoms or fluorinated groups [11]. These fluorinated polymers usually have better solubility and lower dielectric constant and moisture absorption comparison with the non-fluorinated polymers due to the low polarizability and hydrophobicity of flurine [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. However, the synthesis and purification of fluorinated monomers are often complicated and difficult.…”
