Abstract
Synthesis of various 9,10-diarylanthracene derivatives via bis-Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction as a key step is described. Availability of the 9,10-dithienylanthracenes derivatives where the thiophene unit is present in the molecule (e. g. 11, 12, 14) may provide an easy access to novel polymer and/or dendrimer preparation. In addition, we have synthesized unsymmetrical 9,10-diarylanthracene derivatives 20-25 by the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, which are difficult to prepare by other transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.
