Stepwise construction of head-to-tail-type oligothiophenes via iterative palladium-catalyzed CH arylation and halogen exchange.
The well-defined head-to-tail oligothiophenes were synthesized via palladium-catalyzed CH arylation and halogen exchange sequentially through the 2-halothiophene derivatives.
