New Direct Arylation Polycondensation Method Opens the Door to Synthesize

Caption

We demonstrated the synthesis of the isomeric all-acceptor copolymers by DArP using the electron-deficient monomers without any orienting or activating groups for the C-H bonds. Our new DArP method could effectively produce high-molecular-weight and high-quality all-acceptor polymers, thus opening the door to synthesize various promising n-type semiconducting polymers.
