In this work we have synthesized a peripherally Carbazole functionalized dendrimeric starburst monomer containing electron acceptor 1,2,3-Triazole in the branches and electron donor Zn(II) porphyrin Core. The Porphyrin holds tetrafluoride aril substituents connecting the triazole moieties. The electrochemical oxidation of the Carbazole terminal groups allows the electrochemical polymerization over Pt and indium tin oxide electrodes of the fully π-conjugate dendrimeric monomer producing a novel electro-active polymeric film. The versatile electropolymerization methodology allows the generation of thin films of hyperbranched macromolecules with good electrical conductivity, reversible electrochemical processes and electrochromic properties.
