title: Cu-catalysed oxidative C-H/C-H coupling polymerisation of benzodiimidazoles: an efficient approach to regioregular polybenzodiimidazoles for blue-emitting materials.
abstract: The Cu-catalysed oxidative C-H/C-H coupling reaction of azoles has been used for the first time to develop polymerisation, which provides an efficient method for the preparation of polybenzodiimidazoles. These polymers exhibit high molecular weights, regioregularity, blue-emitting performance and thermal stability.
