Abstract

Palladium nanocluster-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura coupling polymerization of 2, 2′-bis (iodobenzoylphenoxy)-1, 1′-binaphthyls 2 with aromatic diboric acid diesters 3 proceeded smoothly, affording 1, 1′-binaphthyl-2, 2′-dioxy-bearing aromatic polyketones 4. The resulting polyketones 4 have excellent thermal stability and solubility in typical organic solvents.
