Direct arylation polycondensation reactions using a simple catalytic system gave eight kinds of bithiophene-based alternating copolymers. The conditions for the reactions of 3,3′,4,4′-tetramethylbithiophene with dibromoarylenes were optimized to obtain high-molecular-weight polymers without formation of cross-linked structures. In the reaction of a dibromoarylene containing a reactive C–H bond, a short reaction time (1.5 h) was suitable for preventing side reactions. In contrast, a long reaction time (6 h) gave high-molecular-weight polymers from dibromoarylene monomers without a reactive C–H bond. This polycondensation reaction enables the synthesis of polymers containing dye structures such as diketopyrrolopyrrole and isoindigo, which are applicable as materials for polymer solar cells.

Direct arylation polycondensation of a bithiazole derivative with dibromoarylenes gave the corresponding bithiazole-based copolymers using the phosphine-free catalytic system in a short reaction time.
