Based on their rigid-rod structure all-conjugated, rod-rod block copolymers show a preferredtendency to self-assemble into low-curvature vesicular or lamellar nanostructures indepen-dent from their specific chemical structure and composition. This unique and attractivebehaviour is clearly illustrated in a few examples of suchall-conjugated block copolymers. The resulting nanostruc-tured heteromaterials may find applications in electronicdevices or artificial membranes.
Introduction
Coil-coil block copolymers have gained an enormous
interest from synthetic and physical chemists, polymer
physicists, polymer engineers as well as from scientists
from related fields since a couple of decades. Driven by the
development of powerful and reliable synthetic methods
as living anionic or insertion polymerization as well
as controlled radical polymerization, thousands of studies
have been published on the nanostructure formation of
such block copolymers both in solution and the solid state.
The interplay of chemical structure, absolute and relative
block lengths and molecular weight distribution, on one
side, and the resulting nanostructure formation in solution
and the solid state, on the other side, is now well-
understood.[1,2] There has been also an increasing interest
in rod-coil block copolymers that containboth rigid-rod and
coiled building blocks. Also their self-assembly into defined

nanostructures has been intensively investigated and
reviewed during the last decade.[3,4] Here, as in coil-coil
block copolymers, the occupied volume of the coil block(s)
mainly influence the resulting nanoscaled morphologies,
leading to spherical/cylindrical micelles or vesicular/
lamellar structures. In contrast, studies on rod-rod block
copolymers are currently still in an inferior state. Driven
by the increasing interest in rod-type polymers as
components of synthetic targets with biological (e.g.
polypeptides, DNA) or electronic (conjugated polymers)
function, the research into rod-rod block copolymers have
been strongly intensified during the last 3–4 years.
Combining two (or more) different rigid-rod blocks within
a rod-rod block copolymerwill allow for a controlled spatial
arrangement of these blocks in complex, functional
nanostructures with a high potential in sophisticated
heterostructured materials for applications in artificial
systemswith biological activity (functionalmembranes) or
in electronic devices (bulk heterojunction solar cells,
photodetectors).
Based on the rigid-rod structure of such rod-like building

the high persistence length of the individual macromole-
cules, generally a low curvature of the aggregates formed

during their self-assembly will result. Therefore, it is
expected that rod-rod block copolymers preferably assem-
ble into vesicular (dilute solution) or lamellar (concentrated
solution, solid state) nanostructures (Figure 1). This
tendency should be mainly independent of the chemical
structure, the sizeand compositionof theblock copolymers.
Onenice example of vesicle formation innonconjugated,
rod-rod diblock copolymers was reported in 2005 by Kros
et al.[6] They investigated synthesis and nanostructure
formation of a nonconjugated polyisocyanide-block-poly-
benzylglutamate diblock copolymer. The authors could
observe the formation of large vesicles with a diameter

of > 5mm as illustrated in laser scanning confocal and
optical microscopy images (Figure 2). A second example
demonstrating the formation of a lamellar solid-state
morphology in oligo(ether sulphone)-block-oligo(ether
ketone) diblock and triblock molecules was published by
Hayakawa et al.[7] in 2006. Energy-filtering transmission
electron microscopic (EFTEM) images especially of diblock
oligomers showed the formation of lamellar superstruc-
tures with a inter-lamellar spacing of 9.1 nm in full
agreement with a molecular length of 9.2 nm for the fully
elongated (rigid-rod) conformation of the aromatic oligo-
mers.
Targets of this short feature article are now all-
conjugated block copolymers of the rod-rod-type that
contain two (or more) structurally different, conjugated
rod blocks. A review on the synthetic schemes towards all-
conjugated block copolymers has been recently pub-
lished.[8]Afterashortoverviewonthesyntheticapproaches
used in the generation of all-conjugated block copolymers
this short article aims to present examples of the self-
assembly properties of some (well-characterized) all-con-
jugated rod-rod block copolymers both in solution and the
solid state. These initial findings promise a great potential
for a controlled nanostructure design towards tailor-made
organic functional materials for various applications.
All-Conjugated Rod-Rod Block Copolymers-Generation and Self-Assembly Properties
One very remarkable synthetic advantage of the last
two decades is the availability of conjugated polymers of
high purity, low amounts of defects and high regioregu-
larity when applying powerful transition metal-catalysed
or -mediated aryl-aryl coupling methods, e.g. after
Suzuki, StilleorYamamoto.[9–11] Inaddition,novelprotocols

for an in situ generation of such conjugated polymers with
defined, reactive end groups have been developed.[12]
Moreover, so-called chain-growth polycondensation
schemes towards conjugated polymers have been recently
developed which allow for the synthesis of conjugated
polyarylenes with rather low polydispersity.[13–17] This
synthetic progress has been translated into novel synthetic
schemes towards all-conjugated block copolymers.
The Japanese team of Yokozawa and coworkers,[15–17]
one of the two pioneering groups in the development of
chain-growth (or catalyst-transfer) polycondensation pro-
cesses (realized e.g. for polyphenylenes, polyfluorenes or
N-substituted polypyrroles), has recently adapted their
protocols for the generation of all-conjugated diblock

copolymers in a so-called ‘‘grafting from’’
approach. The drastically reduced
amount of chain termination events
allows for a simple, step-by-step poly-
condensation of two (or more) AB-type
monomers in the aryl-aryl cross coupling
sequence (see Scheme 1). Following this
approach the authors have described
the successful generation of a poly(2.5-
dialkoxy-1.4-phenylene)-block-poly(N-
hexyl-2.5-pyrrole) diblock copolymer
(PPy-b-PPP).[18] The resulting all-conju-
gated block copolymer shows a rather
narrow molecular weight distribution
with Mn/Mw of 1.16. The self-assembly
properties of these attractive all-conju-
gated block copolymers have not been
described until now.
A different (‘‘grafting onto’’) approach
towards all-conjugated diblock copolymers based on the
chemical linkage of two pre-formed, mono-functionalized
conjugated blocks have been recently introduced by
Bolognesi et al.[19]
Following the ‘‘grafting from’’ scheme of Yokozawa et al.
another Japanese group has been recently described an all-
conjugated diblock copolymer that is simply based on two
regioregular poly (3-alkylthiophene) blocks with different
3-alkyl substituents (branched 2-ethylhexyl and linear
hexyl, respectively; see Scheme 2).[20] The poly(3-hexylthio-
phene)-block-poly [3-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophene] diblock
copolymer (P3HT-b-P3EHT) diblock copolymer shows the
formationof a lamellar solid statemorphologydrivenbyan

blocks as a result of the different bulkiness and crystal-
lization ability of the linear and branched C8 alkyl
substituents (Figure 3).
Please note, that the synthesis of a similar poly
(3-hexylthiophene)-block-poly(3-dodecylthiophene) P3HT-
b-P3DDTwas already described in 2005 byMcCullough and
coworkers.[14] A similar approach was also published by
OshimidzuandUeda[21] leading topoly(3-hexylthiophene)-
block-poly(3-phenoxymethylthiophene) diblock copoly-
mers (Scheme 3). Again, these authors could observe the
formation of nanophase-separated lamellar or sheet-like
solid state morphologies.
Wehave studied synthesis and aggregation behaviour of
a series of amphiphilic, all-conjugated rod-rod diblock
copolymers.[22] In addition to the different chemical
structure of the two backbones we have tried to introduce
blocks of rather different polarity. The amphiphilic nature
of the resulting diblock copolymers should further
facilitate their self-assembly. Hereby, we also used a

‘‘grafting from’’ approach starting from a monobromo-
endcapped, regioregular poly[3-(1-bromohex-6-yl)thio-
phene] Br-P3BrHT precursor that was generated in a
coupling protocol after McCullough and coworkers.[12]
The macromolecular precursor was further reacted with
aAB-type9.9-dialkylfluorenemonomer [2-bromo-9.9-bis(2-
ethylhexyl)-7-pinacolatoboronate] in a Suzuki-type aryl-
aryl cross couplingunder formationof thenonpolar diblock
copolymer PF2/6-b-P3BrHT. After subsequent purification
(removal of homopolymeric by-products) the bromoalkyl
side groups of the diblock copolymer intermediate were
converted into the amphiphilic target copolymers PF2/6-b-
P3PHT or PF2/6-b-P3AHT, respectively, by Arbusov reaction
with triethylphosphite leading to the phosphonic ester side
groups of PF2/6-b-P3PHT or with several amines (e.g.
trimethylamine or pyridine) leading to the nitrogen-based
cationic side groups of PF2/6-b-P3AHT (Scheme 4).[8,23]
The resulting amphiphilic, all-conjugated diblock copo-
lymers have been investigated for their self-assembly
properties in solution. First, static and dynamic light
scattering experiments (SLS/DLS) demonstrated the rigid-
rod nature of individual, nonaggregated copolymer chains
(Rg/Rh: 3.61). Further on, the scattering data indicate the
presence of a small fraction of spherical, probably vesicular
aggregates (Rg/Rh: ca. 1; diameter: ca. 140nm)already in the
nonspecific solvent THF (as good solvent for both blocks).
Addition of water as a nonsolvent for the hydrophobic
polyfluorene block to a solution of PF2/6-b-P3PHT in THF
leads to the formation of spherical aggregates with an
average diameter of ca. 150nm [as estimated by atomic
force microscopy (AFM)]. Optical spectroscopy (absorption
and photoluminescence spectroscopy) documents a two-
step aggregation process. First step is the aggregation of the
nonpolar polyfluorene blocks for water contents of >30%.
The second step is an additional aggregation of the polar
polythiophene blocks for high water contents >70%. The
second step is accompanied by distinct changes of
absorptionspectraandcolouras resultof thewell-described
solvatochromic properties of regioregular polythiophenes
and by a ca. 30% reduction in the diameter of the spheres.

Next, we have tried to further characterize the spherical
aggregates by AFM.[24] After spreading a THF solution of
PF2/6-b-P3PHTat theair/water interfaceAFMimagesof the

lamellar aggregates depends on the
applied surface pressure. The average
size of the vesicles in the AFM images
was, hereby, in very good agreement
with the light scattering numbers.
The stable, purple-coloured disper-
sions containing the spherical PF2/6-b-
P3PHT vesicles (polymersomes), e.g. in
THF-water or acetone-hexane solvent
mixtures, can be simply spin-coated to
dense and homogeneous layers onto a
suited substrate (glass,mica, silicon). The
spin-coated films show the formation of
terrace-like, layered structures. The indi-
vidual sub-layers are composed of den-
sely packed vesicles. The thickness of the
terraces (ca. 34.5 nm) formed after spin-
coating are a goodmeasure for theheight
of the collapsed (soft) vesicles with their
initial diameter of ca. 120nm (Figure 5). This formation of
such dense, nanostructured films opens up further possi-
bilities to create hetero-structured nanomaterials, e.g. by
spin-coating a second component on top of the primarily
formed layers.
Next, we have investigated the self-assembly properties
of the related, cationic counterparts of PF2/6-b-P3PHT, the
ck copolymer after transfer from the air-waterular nanostructures (diameter: ca. 120–150 nm;: contact mode, left: topography 5.0� 5.0mm2,

First, the ionic nature of the copolymers leads to an
increased solubility in polar solvents asmethanol orwater.
Again, optical spectroscopy and light scattering experi-
ments indicate the formation of (nano)aggregates. AFM

These results impressively illustrate the former postulated

panied by a transition to solid state-like films. As expected,
we could find a transition from a vesicular to a lamellar
morphology with a step height (period) of 35–40nm
corresponding to the average length of the interdigitated
block copolymer chains. The regions with the lamellar,
terrace-like structure show a parallel orientation of the
lamellae with respect to the silicon surface. The detailed
investigation of the bulk structure will be the target of
further studies.

All-Conjugated, Rod-Rod Block Copolymers-Generation . . .
Conclusion
All-conjugated rod-rod block copolymers came into the
focus of interest because of their potential to self-assemble
into layered aggregates both in solution and the solid state.
The rigid-rod structure of the individual macromolecules
favours the formation of low-curvature vesicular and
lamellar aggregates independent of the specific chemical
structure and composition. First examples to the self-
assembly of such all-conjugated rod-rod block copolymers
support these expectations.
The block copolymers allow for a simple and reliable
control over the resulting nano-scaled structures and are,
therefore, promising candidates for an application as active
layer in electronic devices (bulk heterojunction-type
organic solar cells, BHJ-OSC) or as functional membranes
(e.g. for sensor applications). Without any doubt, the next
few years will generate a variety of other all-conjugated,
rod-rod block copolymers.
