The polycondensation reaction of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene with 2,7-dibromo-9,9-dioctylfluorene via Pd-catalyzed direct arylation gives poly[(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene-2,5-diyl)-(9,9-dioctylfluorene-2,7-diyl)]. The reaction conditions are optimized in terms of the Pd precatalysts, reaction time, and carboxylic acid additives. The combination of 1 mol% Pd(OAc)(2) and 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid as an additive is the optimized catalytic system, and it yields the corresponding polymer with a molecular weight of 39,400 in 89% yield. The polycondensation reaction, followed by an end-capping reaction, effectively provides a linear polymer without Br terminals.

Platform chemicals from renewable resources with broad applications are highly desirable, particularly for replacing fossil-based monomers. Bifunctional aliphatic ester-aldehydes, accessible via regioselective hydroformylation of unsaturated oleochemicals, can be converted into linear ω-amino/ω-hydroxy esters and dicarboxylic acids-key building blocks for biobased aliphatic polycondensates. However, their success hinges on efficient, economically viable production, with catalyst recycling being critical.

Electrochromic (EC) materials based on ion insertion/desertion mechanisms provide a possibility for energy storage. Solution-processable energy storage EC polyamides have great potential for use in smart displays and EC supercapacitors. A suitable monomer structure design is particularly important for enhancing the electrochemical properties of polyamides.

The development of biobased polyesters with the combination of high UV shielding and degradability is a significant challenge. Herein, three 4-membered cyclic monomers containing two pyrrolidone and two furan rings were prepared by the aza-Michael addition of biobased bifuran diamine and dimethyl itaconate (DMI). They were available in melt polycondensation reactions with various diols to synthesize biobased polyesters.

A novel porphyrin based covalent organic frameworks (Por-BABN-COF) has been successfully constructed via self-polycondensation of a newly developed AB porphyrin building block possessing two amino groups and two neopentyl acetal at the meso-position. Por-BABN-COF was employed as a heterogeneous photocatalyst for the selective oxidation of sulfides and CO cycloaddition due to its superior light absorption capacity, strong crystallinity and high stability. The high conversion, good selectivity and excellent reusability indicate Por-BABN-COF is a promising photocatalyst for both reactions.
