title: Palladium catalyzed arylation for the synthesis of polyarenes.
abstract: We present the current understanding on the mechanism of palladium-catalyzed arylation, which involves a proton abstraction by the base. In addition, we present selected examples of the application of this reaction for the synthesis of large polyarenes to highlight the variety of catalysts and reaction conditions that are currently used.
