β¦ Synopsis
A Molecular-Orbital-Based Molecular Mechanics method (MOMM) has been employed to calculate the structures of cyclopentadiene, pyrrole, furan, thiophene, dibenzocyclopentadiene (fluorene), dibenzopyrrole, dibenzofuran, and dibenzothiophene. The dimer structures of the above compounds have also been calculated using the same method to derive the unit cells of polycyclopentadiene, polypyrrole, polyfuran, polythiophene, polydibenzocyclopentadiene, polydibenzopyrrole, polydibenzofuran, and polydibenzothiophene. The band structures, densities of states, ionization potentials, band gaps, reduction potentials, and oxidation potentials of these polymers then have been calculated by using the Valence Effective Hamiltonian method (VEH). The structural effects on electronic properties are discussed.
