Conjugated polymers with strong photophys. properties were used in many applications. A homopolymer (P1) and five new low band gap copolymers based on 4,4′-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) and acceptors 3,6-dithienyldiketopyrrolopyrrole (P2), phthalimide (P3), benzotriazole (P4), 4,7-dithienyl[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5g]quinoxaline (P5), and 2,5-dithienylthieno[3,4-b]pyrazine (P6) were prepared by Sonogashira polymerization The characterization of polymers by using 1H NMR, absorption, and emission spectroscopy is discussed. All polymers with high mol. weights (Mn) of 16,000 to 89,000 g mol-1 showed absorption maxima in the deep-red region (λ=630-760 nm) in solution and exhibited significant red shifts (up to 70 nm) in thin films. Polymers P2, P5, and P6 showed narrow optical band gaps of 1.38, 1.35, and 1.38 eV, resp., which are significantly lower than that of P1 (1.63 eV). The HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the polymers were calculated by using cyclic voltammetry measurements. The LUMO energy levels of BODIPY-based alternating copolymers were independent of the acceptors; probably the major factor that tunes the LUMO energy levels of the polymers could be the BODIPY core. All polymers showed selective and reproducible detection of volatile organic solvents, such as toluene and benzene, which could be used for developing sensors.
