Abstract

We report the first example of a general, exhaustive Pd-mediated cross-coupling of polychloroarenes in the presence of a deficit of nucleophiles, mediated by the highly active PEPPSI-IPent catalyst. Our results indicate that this catalyst system may be applicable to the pseudo-living polymerisation of chloroarene monomers.
