7.2 Synthesis of Initiator Precursors and Complexes

Gel permeation chromatography: Gel permeation chromatography was carried out on a Polymer Laboratories PL-GPC 50 with two PLgel 5 µm MIXED-C columns in THF at 50 °C with RI detection against polystyrene standards.

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy: NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Unity INOVA 400 and on a Bruker Avance 400 spectrometer (1H: 400 MHz, 13C: 101 MHz, 19F: 376 MHz,

31P: 162 MHz). 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR chemical shifts were referenced to the residual signal of the deuterated solvent. Multiplicities are given as follows: s: singlet, d: doublet, t: triplet, q: quartet, m:

multiplet.

Matrix-assisted LASER desorption/ionization – time of flight spectrometry: For MALDI-TOF MS, the polymer was dissolved in CHCl3 and analyzed by a Bruker Microflex MALDI-TOF with alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid as a matrix.

Dynamic light scattering: Particle size measurements were performed on a Malvern Nano-ZS ZEN 3600 particle sizer (173° back scattering, 633 nm LASER wavelength). The Malvern dispersion technology software 5.1 algorithm was used to analyze the autocorrelation function, yielding number weighted particle sizes and size distributions. Fluorescent polyfluorene particles obtained by multi-inlet vortex mixing experiments were analyzed by a Viscotek 802DLS (830 nm LASER wavelength), to prevent excitation of the sample during particle size analysis.

Atomic force microscopy: AFM manipulation was carried out with a JPK Nanowizard 3 NanoScience AFM instrument. For force-spectroscopy, OTESPA-R3 cantilevers from Bruker were used.

Centrifugation: A Biofuge Primo centrifuge with a highconic rotor (6 × 50 mL) was used (diameter: 12.4 cm).

Differential scanning calorimetry: DSC analysis was performed on a Netzsch DSC 204 F1 at a heating rate of 10 °C/min in a temperature range from -50 °C to 150 °C.
