Summary
The syntheses of two different poly(3,6-carbazolymethylene)s are described. The polycondensation reaction proceeds without any crosslinking and the obtained polymers were characterised by elemental analysis 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and 19F-NMR. DSC studies evidenced that one of the obtained polymers, i.e. poly[N-(3,4,5-tris(4-perflourooctylbutyl-1-yloxy)benzyl)carbazole] shows liquid crystalline behaviour and X-ray analysis pointed to a hexagonal columnar mesophase.
