Synthesis of 4,4′-dinonyl-2,2′-bithiazole-based copolymers via Pd-catalyzed direct C-H arylation

Abstract

Direct arylation polycondensation of a bithiazole derivative with dibromoarylenes gave the corresponding bithiazole-based copolymers using the phosphine-free catalytic system in a short reaction time. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2012.
