Synthesis of Strained Macrocyclic Biaryls for Enthalpy-Driven Ring-Opening Polymerization

Polymerizable macrocyclic biarylene−ether−ketones and biarylene−ether−sulfones are accessible from linear, bis(chloro)-terminated oligomers via nickel-catalyzed, intramolecular coupling under pseudo-high-dilution conditions. Single-crystal X-ray analyses of the resulting cyclo-oligomers reveal extre...

Zusammenfassung:Polymerizable macrocyclic biarylene−ether−ketones and biarylene−ether−sulfones are accessible from linear, bis(chloro)-terminated oligomers via nickel-catalyzed, intramolecular coupling under pseudo-high-dilution conditions. Single-crystal X-ray analyses of the resulting cyclo-oligomers reveal extremely distorted and highly strained geometries, with 4,4‘-biphenylene units showing deviations of up to 70° from linearity.
