Herein, three D-A type CPs, namely TPD-T, TPD-MOT and TPD-DOT, were designed and synthesized using thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6-dione (TPD) as A units and thiophene with different alkyl/alkoxy groups side chain (as 3-octylthiophene (T), 3-methoxythiophene (MOT) and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (DOT)) as D units, via an atom- and step-economic CH/CH cross-coupling polycondensation.

The results show that the hydrogen evolution rates (HERs) of the as-synthesized CPs in pure water and natural seawater significantly increased by 5 and 7 times, respectively, when the number of alkoxy groups on the side chain of polymers increased from 0 to 2. In particular, HERs of three polymers in natural seawater are distinctly better than that in pure water.
