Abstract

Abstract : A library of STP-based CP photocatalysts with –CN groups at varied positions were designed and facilely synthesized by an atom- and step-economic one-component direct arylation polymerization for a structure–property–performance correlation study. Abstract : 2-Styrylthiophene-based donor–acceptor linear conjugated polymers with tunable cyano substituents are atom-economically obtained via direct C–H arylation for platinum-free photocatalytic hydrogen production, affording a HER of up to 9.79 mmol h −1 g −1 .
