Abstract

Triarylamine polymers were prepared by palladium-catalyzed amination of aryl halides, and the electrochemical and magnetic properties of these materials were studied. Through a careful evaluation of the catalytic and polymer chemistry involved in this process, triarylamine polymers that are exclusively linear and free of phosphorus impurity in the polymer chain have been prepared. To suppress molecular weight-limiting side reactions ...
