摘　　要：Two novel decyloxyphenylquinoxaline-based donor-acceptor （D-A） electroactive monomers bearing dialkoxythiophene as the donor unit are synthesized using Stille coupling reaction. The corresponding polymers, poly[2,3- bis（4-decyloxyphenyl）-5,8-bis（3,4-dimethoxylthiophen-2-yl）quinoxaline] （P1） and poly[2,3-bis（4-decyloxyphenyl）-5,8- bis（2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl）quinoxaline] （P2）, are directly deposited onto the working electrode surface by electropolymerization. All materials were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance （NMR）, mass spectrometry （MS）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, cyclic voltammetry （CV）, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrometry （UV-Vis） and spectro-electrochemical measurements. Electrochemical studies demonstrate that both polymers are capable of showing both reasonable n- and p-doping processes, and advanced long-term switching stabilities. 3,4-Ethylenedioxythiophene substituted for 3,4-dimethoxythiophene as a donor unit, which enhances the conjugated double-bond character of the conducting polymer, thus leading to a lower electronic band-gap. Likewise, the neutral state color of the synthesized polymer tuned from blue to blue-green corresponding to the red shift of the maximum absorption wavelengths in the visible region. In addition, kinetics study of P1 revealed 42% （595 nm）, 30% （839 nm） and 69% （1500 nm） transmittance changes （A7%）, while P2 exhibited 32% （740 nm）, 71% （2000 nm） at the dominant wavelengths. It was also observed that both films could switch quickly between the neutral state and oxidation state, with the response time less than 1 s both in visible and near infrared regions.Two novel decyloxyphenylquinoxaline-based donor-acceptor （D-A） electroactive monomers bearing dialkoxythiophene as the donor unit are synthesized using Stille coupling reaction.
