The synthesis of 5-alkyl[3,4-c]thienopyrrole-4,6-dione-based polymers using a Pd-catalyzed oxidative C–H/C–H homopolymerization reaction†
Abstract
A new, simple, mild, atom economical homopolymerization method through Pd-catalyzed oxidative C–H/C–H coupling was developed for the preparation of a series of 5-alkyl[3,4-c]thienopyrrole-4,6-dione-based conjugated polymers.
