Near-infrared (NIR) emissive conjugated polymers were prepared by palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira polymerization of diiodobenzene-functionalized aza-borondipyrromethene (Aza-BODIPY) monomers, which were substituted at 3 and 5 or 1 and 7 positions on the Aza-BODIPY core, with 1,4-diethynyl-2,5-dihexadecyloxybenzene or 3,3'-didodecyl-2,2'-diethynyl-5,5'-bithiophene. The structures of the polymers were confirmed by H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, B-11 NMR, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopies, and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). The optical properties were then characterized by UV-vis absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies, and theoretical calculation using density-functional theory (DFT) method. The polymers were fusible and soluble in common organic solvents including tetrahydrofuran (THF), o-xylene, toluene, CHCl3, and CH2Cl2, etc. The UV-vis absorption and PL spectra of the polymers shifted to long wavelength region in comparison with simple Aza-BODIPY as the counterpart because of extended p-conjugation of the polymers. The polymers efficiently emitted NIR light with narrow emission bands at 713 similar to 777 nm on excitation at each absorption maximum. Especially, the polymer attached 1,4-diethynyl-2,5-dihexadecyloxybenzene to 3,5-position on the core revealed intense quantum yields (Phi(F) = 24%) in this NIR region (753 nm).
