Abstract
Bisfuran‐s‐tetrazine (FTz) and its copolymers with cyclopenta[2,1‐b:3,4‐b′]dithiophene (CPDT) and benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene (BDT) (PCPDTFTz and PBDTFTz) are prepared with the alternating s‐tetrazine and CPDT or BDT units bridged by a furan ring. Their optical and electrochemical properties are studied and compared with their thiophene analogs (PCPDTTTz‐out and PCPDTTTz‐in), in which the bridging unit is 4‐hexylthiophene or 3‐hexylthiophene, respectively. Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells fabricated from these polymers with PC~71~BM have a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 0.8%, which is much lower than that from the PCPDTTTz‐out analog (3.2%), due to the low steric hindrance of the furan polymers in the absence of alkyl substitution on the furan ring.
