For the first time, OPV characteristics of polymers synthesized via direct arylation were compared to those synthesized via Suzuki coupling. 64 Direct arylation polycondensation using the phosphine-free catalytic system can be adapted to the synthesis of bithiazole-based alternating copolymers (P34). In comparison with conventional polycondensation via other cross-coupling reactions, the polycondensation proceeded with a reduced amount of Pd catalyst (2 mol%) in a short reaction time (10 min to 3 h).
