This study focuses on the regioselective C−H/C−H coupling of N-vinylcarbazole with thiophenes, offering an efficient route to N-vinylene-incorporated conjugated molecules for the development of organic electronic materials. Traditional palladium-catalyzed Fujiwara-Moritani (FM) reactions proved ineffective for C−H alkenylation with N-vinylcarbazole. In response, we have developed an iron-catalyzed twofold alkenylation method for conjugated thiophenes with N-vinylcarbazole, utilizing trimethylaluminum as the base and diethyl oxalate as the oxidant. This reaction occurs regioselectively at the C2−H (or C5−H) bond of the thiophenes and the terminal position of N-vinylcarbazole. It also successfully produces short thiophene polymers end-capped with N-vinylcarbazole, demonstrating the potential for synthesizing polymeric donor materials. The enamine products exhibit blue-to-green emission, high fluorescence quantum yield, and visible light responsivity for stereo-isomerization, indicating promising applications in organic electronics.","PeriodicalId":12842,"journal":{"name":"Helvetica Chimica Acta","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/hlca.202300210","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138632226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
