Abstract | We report a versatile new synthetic route to poly(para-phenylene)s (PPPs) and related poly(para-arylene)s containing high degrees of substitution not readily available by other methods. Our method transforms highly soluble, alkyne-containing polymers into PPPs via high-yielding, transition metal-mediated {[}2+2+2] cyclizations. |
