A copper-mediated dehydrogenative C-H/C-H biaryl coupling of phenols and 1,3-azoles has been developed. The key to its success is the introduction of a bipyridine-type bidentate auxiliary, 4,4'-di(-butyl)-2,2'-bipyridine, on the phenol oxygen, which is readily prepared and easily attachable, detachable, and recyclable. The reaction proceeds smoothly in the presence of copper salt alone to form the corresponding phenol-azole heterobiaryls, which are prevalent motifs in functional molecules such as excited-state intramolecular proton transfer materials.

Zinc porphyrin (TP-Zn)-based conjugated microporous polymer (Zn-CMP) spheres were obtained via Sonagashira-Hagihara cross coupling reactions between 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-ethynylphenyl)porphyrin-Zn(II) and brominated monomers directed by bidentate bipyridine (BP)-type ligands for the first time, and the sphere diameters could be adjusted from 320 to 740 nm. The coordination between BP and TP-Zn was proved to be the key to forming spheres.
