Abstract
Aggregation of poly(para-phenyleneethynylene)s is efficiently suppressed by introduction of branched oligoethyleneglycol side chains rendering the polymer backbone, which is readily obtained using an A2 + BB′ polycondensation protocol, soluble and highly emissive in aqueous environments.Keywords
