Synthesis of thiophene-containing conjugated polymers from 2,5-thiophenebis(boronic ester)s by Suzuki polycondensation

Abstract

High molecular weight thiophene-containing conjugated polymers were successfully synthesized by Suzuki polycondensation of aryl dibromides and 2,5-thiophenebis(boronic acid) derivatives by using a new thiophene-containing bulky phosphorous compound as the ligand for a zerovalent palladium catalyst.
