We report a facile grafting-from strategy towards the synthesis of inorganic–organic composites ofsemiconductor nanocrystals and wide-bandgap polymers. Amino-functional fluorenes have been usedas co-ligands for CdSe nanocrystals, thus enabling us to design their surface directly during thesynthesis. Highly monodisperse, strongly emitting CdSe nanocrystals have been obtained.Subsequently, a straightforward Yamamoto C–C coupling protocol was used to carry out surfacepolymerisation, hence modifying CdSe nanocrystals with oligo- and poly(fluorene) moieties. Bothamino-fluorene capped CdSe nanocrystals and the resulting nanocrystal–polymer composites werecharacterized in detail by optical and FT-IR spectroscopy, TEM, AFM, and gel permeationchromatography, showing their potential as novel functional inorganic–organic hybrid materials.
