Synthesis and self-assembly of poly(3-hexylthiophene)-block-poly(acrylic acid).
A modular and convenient synthesis of ethynyl end functionalized poly(3-hexylthiophene) in high purity is reported; this material facilitated access to poly(3-hexylthiophene)-block-poly(acrylic acid) which self-assembled into hierarchical structures.
